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 metake metake 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
