Day after day I'm more confused  Then I look for the light through the pourin' rain  You know, that's a game, that I hate to lose   I'm feelin' the strain, ain't it a shame     [CHORUS:]  Give me the beat boys and free my soul   I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away  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    Beginin' to think, that I'm wastin' time  And I don't understand the things I do  The world outside looks so unkind  And I'm countin' on you, you can carry me through    Give me the beat boys and free my soul   I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away  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    And when my mind is free  You know your melody can move me  And when I'm feelin' blue  The guitars come through to soothe me    Thanks for the joy you've given me  I want you to know that I believe in your song  And rhythm, and rhyme, and harmony  You helped me along, you're makin' me strong    Give me the beat boys and free my soul   I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away  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    Give me the beat boys and free my soul   I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away  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
