Day after day i'm more confused
but i look for the light thru 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>br> and i don't understand the things i do
the world outside looks so unkind
i'm counting on you
to carry me thru-oh

chorus

when my mind is free
you know a melody can move me
and when i'm feelin' blue
the spirit's comin' thru to soothe me

thanks for the joy that you've given me
i want you to know i believe in the song
and rhythm and rhyme and harmony
you helped me along
you're makin' me strong

chorus
