Drifting

Have you ever met a man

Who has never followed his dreams?

Imagines horizons unseen?

Plans that will never be?

I don't wanna be that man

Oh, I go wherever I go

Town to town and show to show

Invitation, I'll never say no

I'll keep on drifting far away from home

And I know I won't be there for awhile

Another day begins

Some stranger cleans my room

Puts every right perfume

In this air-conditioned tomb

What more can I need?

(What more can I need?)

Free coffee and cheaper food

Every night I'm paid in booze

And nobody ever questions what I do

I keep on drifting far away from home

And I know I won't be there for awhile

And I don't know who I am when I come home

And my liver says I'm better on the phone

And I'm losing every friend I ever known, ooh

And I can't believe how much my kids have grown

I keep on drifting far away from you

And I know I won't be there for awhile (aah)

I'll keep drifting far away from you

And I know I won't be home for awhile
