Lyrics:
began to lose control)
I'm sendin' Lorraine Schwartz diamond minin'
Find 'em, I came up with Enzo drifters (I began to lose control)
So you gots
my own way
By turnin' a couple of jobs in some ladies' backyard I averaged about a dollar a day
I wake up early each morning and before I started on my
She's young and soft and kind
And she deserves a whole lot better
Than a guitar pickin' drifter
Who never gave a tinkers damn
But if lovin' me is
Drifters, drifting by
Now you've come back again
And I ain't over it yet
Please won't you walk with me
Talk with me
Starlight, yeah
Starlight, oh
She's young and soft and kind
And she deserves a whole lot better
Than a guitar pickin' drifter
Who never gave a tinkers damn
But if lovin' me is
get out of it
Any and all should fall, many are small should call
Naughty By Nature the creator of all y'all
Show hope, show no hope and can't cope,
alone
Surrounded by strangers I thought were my friends
I found myself further and further from my home
And I guess I lost my way
There were oh so many
Surrounded by strangers I thought were my friends
I found myself further and further from my home
I guess I lost my way
There were oh so many roads
I was
slowly past
And I found myself alone
Surrounded by strangers I thought were my friends
I found myself further and further from my home
And I guess I
slowly past
And I found myself alone
Surrounded by strangers I thought were my friends
I found myself further and further from my home
And I guess I
out by previous wars, I work on
Graves of the poor
To clean up this mess left by the west
My duty to the African, tell my next of kin
In a song, but
you
I would chart my own course by you
And I'd sail it by your light
Bright star
I have sailed in all directions
I have followed your reflection
around
I could be your one trick pony
One thing that I'll do that will teach you a thing or two
About a wayward drifter's ways just a-cruising for a room
commands you
And I've watched love pass you by
At times I think we're drifters
Still searching for a friend
A brother or a sister
But then the passion
used to call home sweet home
I'd roam the streets so much they called me a drifter
Sometimes I'd stick up a thumb just to hitchhike
Just to get
commands you
And I've watched love pass you by
At times I think we're drifters
Still searching for a friend
A brother or a sister
But then the passion
A tapestry to feel and see, impossible to hold.
Once, amid the soft, silver sadness in the sky,
There came a man of fortune, a drifter passing by.
He wore
watched love pass you by
At times I think were drifters
Still searching for a friend
A brother or a sister
But then the passion flares again
And I watched love pass you by
At times I think we're drifters
Still searching for a friend
A brother or a sister
But then the passion flares again
all your fears
Where you finna go
Bring it over here
Last time you was over
Left a souvenir
I know you've been focused
I won't interfere
Speaking
souvenirs
The memory of a lifetime
We were wide-eyed with everything
Everything around us
We were enlightened by everything
Everything
So I close my eyes
Though our love
Is like a winding road
Of uncertainty
I long trust your smile
And all the ways you feel
Touching me
Moment by moment
Our
watched while love commands you
D: And I've watched love pass you by
K: And at times I think we're drifters
Searching for a friend
D: A brother or a sister
