I'm just a drifter I go from place to place I'm just a drifter Nobody knows my face And when I go into a town The people there they try and put me down They say hey drifter We don't want your kind around So I go my way Back to the highway I'm just a drifter Out in this world alone I'm just a drifter No place to call my home I see lovers pass me by I watch them all with a tear in my eye I can't help feelin' how lucky they are Laughin' and talkin' as they go walkin' And then at night Stars are so bright I see your face before me It brings back the memory Of days gone by Of a you and I And then I cry Woe how I cry Oh I'm just a drifter I go from town to town I'm just a drifter But I wasn't always down 'Cause once I had a love by my side A love so strong that money couldn't buy But heaven called and took her away Out of my arms and led me to wander I'm just a drifter I go from town to town I'm just a drifter But I wasn't always down I'm just a drifter I go from town.....
