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 put me down
They say: Hey drifter, go away
Don't want your kind around,
So I go my way, back to the highway
 
I'm just a drifter, no place to call my home
I'm just a drifter, out in this world alone
I see lovers pass me by
I watch them all with a tear in my eye
I can't help thinking how lucky they are
(Laughing and talking, as they go walking)
 
And at night, stars are bright,
I see your face before me
It brings back a memory
Of days gone by, of you and I
And then I cry, oh how I cry
 
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 girl by my side
A love so strong, that money couldn't buy,
No, no, no
 
But heaven called and took her away
(Out of my arms and left me to wander)
I'm just a drifter, I go from town to town
I'm just a drifter, I go from town to town
