Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I'm gonna be a modern day drifter
And get out while I can
Gonna trade in this life I've been livin'
For a pocket full of sand
And a modern day drifter don't have to tell no one his plans
[Verse 2]
I'm gonna find that lost stretch of highway
Where no one knows my name
Where as long as the sky just goes on
And it's never the same
A modern day drifter don't ever complain
[Chorus]
Bye-bye, high life
Feels like the right time
To say so long
Keep on goin' strong
And I'll just keep on bein' gone
[Verse 3]
'Cause I'm gonna be a modern day drifter
Yes, I am
I'm gonna slip this ring off my finger
'Cause everybody understands
That a modern day drifter's got nothing but time on his hands
[Chorus]
Bye-bye, high life
It feels like the right time
To say so long
Keep on goin' strong
And I'll just keep on bein' gone
[Verse 4]
'Cause I'm gonna be a modern day drifter
Oh, yes, I am
I'm gonna slip this ring off my finger
'Cause everybody understands
That a modern day drifter's got nothing but time on his hands
