Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Day after day, I'm more confused

Yet I look for the light through the pouring rain

You know that's a game that I hate to lose

And I'm feeling the strain

Ah, ain't it a shame?

[Chorus]

Oh, give me the beat, boys, and free my soul

I wanna get lost in your rock and roll

And drift away

[Chorus]

Give me the beat, boys, and free my soul

I wanna get lost in your rock and roll

And drift away

Won't you take me away?

[Verse 2]

Beginning to think that I'm wasting time

I don't understand the things I do

The world outside looks so unkind

And I'm counting on you

You can carry me through

[Chorus]

Oh, give me the beat, boys, and free my soul

I wanna get lost in your rock and roll

And drift away

[Chorus]

Give me the beat, boys, and free my soul

I wanna get lost in your rock and roll

And drift away

Won't you take me away?

[Verse 3]

And when my mind is free

You know a melody can move me

When I'm feeling blue

The guitar's coming through to soothe me

[Verse 4]

Thanks for the joy that you're giving me

Ooh, the joy that you're giving me

I want you to know I believe in your song

Oh yeah

[Verse 5]

Rhythm and rhyme and harmony

Mmm

You help me along

Making me strong

Ah, you're making me strong

[Chorus]

Oh, give me the beat, boys, and free my soul

I wanna get lost in your rock and roll

And drift away

Drift away, ooh

[Chorus]

Give me the beat, boys, and free my soul

I wanna get lost in your rock and roll

And drift away

Drift away

[Chorus]

Give me the beat, boys, and free my soul

I wanna get lost in your rock and roll

And drift away

Drift away, oh

[Chorus]

Just give me the beat, boys, and free my soul

I wanna get lost in your rock and roll

And drift away

Yeah

[Outro]

Oh, won't you take me?

Oh, won't you take me?

I wanna drift away

Won't you take me away?

[Outro]

I wanna drift away

I wanna drift away

Oh, won't you take me?

Take me home

Let me drift away

Won't you take me away?
