"Drift Away" (MP3)
Misheard Lyrics:
Day after day I'm all confused
So I look for the life in the poor and rain
You know that's a game that I hate Toulouse
I'm fleeing the train, ain't had no shame
Oh, give me the beat box, and freeze my sole
I wanna get laws into rock and roll and driftin' high.
So I look for the life in the poor and rain
You know that's a game that I hate Toulouse
I'm fleeing the train, ain't had no shame
Oh, give me the beat box, and freeze my sole
I wanna get laws into rock and roll and driftin' high.
Original Lyrics:
Day after day I'm more confused
So I look for the light in the pouring rain
You know that's a game that I hate to lose
I'm feelin' the strain, ain't it a shame
Oh, give me the beat, boys, and free my soul
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away.
So I look for the light in the pouring rain
You know that's a game that I hate to lose
I'm feelin' the strain, ain't it a shame
Oh, give me the beat, boys, and free my soul
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away.
