I'm a drifter floatin' on the sea Goin' where the currents take me And I don't think I'll ever come to rest 'Cause I'm a drifter floatin' on the ocean I've kinda got to where I like the motion Things are gonna work out for the best I know you want me to stay And honey I'd sure like to see it your way 'Cause you're the best I've ever had of late But somethin' stronger than love somehow Has got me restless and I gotta go now But I'll be back this way if you care to wait I'm a drifter floatin' on the sea Goin' where the currents take me And I don't think I'll ever come to rest 'Cause I'm a drifter floatin' on the ocean I've kinda got to where I like the motion Hopin' things are gonna work out for the best I keep hopin' to find A settledown place and a peaceful mind Wonderin' if it's just around the bend 'Cause with all the things I wanna do and see You gotta be a millionaire of broke like me Walkin' down this road that's got no end. I'm a drifter floatin' on the sea Goin' where the currents take me And I don't think I'll ever come to rest 'Cause I'm a drifter floatin' on the ocean I've kinda got to where I like the motion Hopin' things are gonna work out for the best
