I am a drifter, and I'm here tonight
But if it's alright, I'll stay until the morning
And I'm bound to journey, 'cause that's who I am
So understand I might leave without a warning
Oh, I am, I am a drifter
Well, I've met some rounders who did me wrong
I've written songs about the way they hurt me
And I've helped some angels who felt betrayed
'Cause I have made a choice to be unworthy
Oh I am, I am a drifter
There's a gypsy voice I hear
Telling me to move on
A restless feelin' in my bones
Before I know it, I'm up and gone
I've seen the country from shore to shore
And I've explored the deserts and the mountains
My home's the highway, and it's everywhere
I'm never scared of the miles that I'm not countin'
Oh, I am, I am a drifter
There's a gypsy voice I hear
Telling me to move on
A restless feelin' in my bones
Before I know it, I'm up and gone
I am a drifter, and I'm here tonight
But if it's alright, I'll stay until the morning
But I'm bound to travel, 'cause that's who I am
So understand I might leave without a warning
Oh, I am, I am a drifter
Oh, I am, I am a drifter
