She's Just A Drifter Lyrics - Marty Robbins

She's just a drifter and she drifts from town to town 

She's never been branded and she's never been tied down 

She drifts for a while then she might drift back to town 

And somethin' keeps callin' she has to move on to new ground 

Wild as a prairie wind, warm as the hot desert sun 

Places she's never seen keeps her from settlin' down 

Just like a free runnin' river she rambles and rolls 

The highway's her heaven, she makes the whole world her own 

'Cause she's a drifter don't mean that I don't care about her 

Sometimes I live with her, sometimes I'm livin' without her 

Just when I think that I'm finally beginnin' to tame her 

That's when she makes me feel bein' tied down kinda shames her 

Down to the ocean, she might stay a while on the beach 

Then caught by the high tide she drifts further on out of reach 

There's no way a-tellin' how soon you may see her again 

Nature's her mother and that makes her kin to the wind
