You know, that's a game that I hate to lose
Yeah, the world outside looks so unkind
Give me the beat, boys and free my soul
And when I'm feeling blue
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away
And when my mind is free
Thanks for the joy you've given me
You know, the melody can move me
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away
Give me the beat, boys, come on
You help me along, you're making me strong
I'm feeling the strain, ain't it a shame?
The guitar's coming through to soothe me, yeah
The rhythm and rhyme and harmony
Give me the beat, boys and free my soul
Give me the beat, boys and free my soul
Give me the beat, boys and free my soul
Day after day I'm more confused
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'm beginning to think that I'm wasting time
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away
Give me the beat, boys and free my soul
I want you to know that I believe in the song
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away
And I don't understand the things I do
Give me the beat, boys and free my soul
Give me the beat, boys
But I look for the light through the pouring rain
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away
Now it's up to you to carry me through
