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 I'm feelin' the strain, ain't it a shame? Oh Give me the beat boys and free my soul I want to get lost in the rock and roll And drift away Give me the beat boys and free my soul I want to get lost in the rock and roll And drift away Beginnin' to think that I'm wasting time And I don't understand the things I do The world outside looks so unkind 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 the rock and roll And drift away Give me the beat boys and free my soul I want to get lost in the rock and roll And drift away When my mind is free You know a melody can move me And when I'm feelin' blue The guitar's comin' through to soothe me Thanks for the joy that you've given me I want you to know I believe in your song And rhythm and rhyme and harmony You helped me along, you're makin' me strong Give me the beat boys and free my soul I want to get lost in the rock and roll And drift away Give me the beat boys and free my soul I want to get lost in the rock and roll And drift away
