Day after day I'm more confused
Yet I look for the light
Through the pouring rain
You know that's a game that I hate to lose
Now I'm feeling the strength, ain't it a shame

Gimme the beat boys and free my soul
I wanna get lost in the rock and roll
And drift away
Gimme the beat boys and free my soul
I wanna get lost in the 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

Gimme the beat boys and free my soul
I wanna get lost in the rock and roll
And drift away
Gimme the beat boys and free my soul
I wanna get lost in the 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
The guitars coming through
to soothe me

Thanks for the joy that you've giving me
I want you to know I believe in your song
And rhythm and rhyme and harmony
You helped me along, making me strong

Gimme the beat boys and free my soul
I wanna get lost in the rock and roll
And drift away
Gimme the beat boys and free my soul
I wanna get lost in the rock and roll
And drift away
