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 feeling the strain

Ain´t it a shame

Oh, give me the beat, boys, and free my soul
I want to get lost in your rock and roll
And drift away
Oh, give me the beat, boys, and free my soul
I want to get lost in your 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

Oh, give me the beat, boys, and free my soul
I want to get lost in your rock and roll
And drift away

Oh, give me the beat, boys, and free my soul
I want to get lost in your 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 guitar´s coming through to soothe me

Thanks for the joy that you´re given me
I want you to know I believe in your song
Your rythm and rhyme and harmony
You´ve helped me along
Makin´ me strong

Oh, give me the beat, boys, and free my soul
I want to get lost in your rock and roll
And drift away

Oh, give me the beat, boys, and free my soul
I want to get lost in your rock and roll
And drift away
Na, na, now won´t ya
Won´t ya take, oh ha ...take me
