Day after day I'm more confused
And 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
Ain't it a shame
Oh, 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
The world outside looks so unkind
Now 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
give me the beat, boys, and free my soul
I want to get lost in your rock and roll
And drift away
And when my mind is free
You know a melody can move me
And when I'm feeling blue
Guitar's coming through to soothe me
Thanks for the joy that you've given me
I want you to know I believe in your song
Rythmn and rhyme and harmony
You've helped me along
Making me strong
Oh, give me the beat, boys
And free my soulI 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
