Day after day I'm more confused.
Yet I look for the light through the pourin' rain.
You know that's a game that I hate to lose,
And I'm feelin' the strain.
Aw, ain't it a shame.

(Chorus)

Oh, 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.
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.

(Repeat Chorus)

When my mind is free,
An old melody can move me.
When I'm feelin' blue,
The guitar's comin' through to soothe me.

Thanks for the joy that you're givin' me.
(Oooo, joy that you're givin' me.)
I want you to know that I believe in your song.
(Oh, yeah.)
Rhythm and rhyme and harmony.
(Mmmm Hmmm)
It helped me along.
(Makin' me strong.)
Aw, you're makin' me strong.

(Repeat Chorus)(x2)

Yeah.
Oh, won't ya take me.
Oh, won't ya take me.
I wanna drift away.
Won't you take me away.
I wanna drift away.
I wanna drift away.
Take me home.
Let me drift away.
Won't you take me away.
