Day after day I'm more confused   Still I look for the sun through the pouring rain   You know that's a game that I hate to lose   And I'm feeling the strain   Ain't it a shame      Give me the beat boys and free my soul   I want to get lost in your rock and roll and drift away   Give me the beat boys and free my soul   I want to get lost in your rock and roll and drift away      Beginning to think that I'm wasting time   I don't understand the things I do   World outside looks so unkind   And I'm counting on you to carry me through      Oh give me the beat boys and free my soul   I want to get lost in your rock and roll and drift away   I said give me the beat boys and free my soul   I want to get lost in your rock and roll and drift away      When my mind is free   You know that a melody can move me   And when I'm feeling blue   The guitars coming through to soothe me      Thanks for the joy that you've given me   I want you to know I believe in your song   Rhythm and rhyme and harmony   You've helped me along making me strong         Oh give me the beat boys and free my soul   I want to get lost in your rock and roll and drift away   I said give me the beat boys and free my soul   I want to get lost in your rock and roll and drift away      Give me the beat boys and free my soul   I want to get lost in your rock and roll and drift away all right   I said give me the beat boys and free my soul   (oh now it's time to come on and free my soul)   I want to get lost in your rock and roll and drift away   (we're gonna drift away)   Why don't you give me the beat boys and free my soul   (take me, take me, take me away)   I want to get lost in your rock and roll and drift away   (oh)   I said give me the beat boys and free my soul   I want to get lost in your rock and roll and drift away
