Ringo Starr - Drift Away lyrics

[Intro: Ringo Starr] Give me the beat, boys Give me the beat, boys [Verse 1: Ringo] Day after day I'm more confused But I look for the light through the pouring rain You know, that's a game that I hate to lose I'm feeling the strain Ain't it a shame? [Chorus: Ringo] Give me the beat, boys and free my soul I want to 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 [Verse 2: Ringo] I'm beginning to think that I'm wasting time And I don't understand the things I do Yeah, the world outside looks so unkind Now it's up to you to carry me through [Chorus: Ringo] [Verse 3: Ringo] And when my mind is free You know, the melody can move me And when I'm feeling blue The guitar's coming through to soothe me, yeah [Bridge: Alanis Morrisette] Thanks for the joy you've given me I want you to know that I believe in the song The rhythm and rhyme and harmony You help me along You're making me strong Give me the beat, boys[x2] Come on! [Chorus: Ringo, Alanis, and Steve Tyler][x2] [Outro: Steve] Give me the beat, boy "That's cool, I'll just double that!"
