Day after day I'm more confused
I look for the light in the pouring 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, to soothe my soul
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away
Give me the beat, boys, to soothe my soul
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift awayBeginning to think that I'm wastin' time
Don't understand the things that I do
'Cause the world outside looks so unkind
Now I'm countin' on you to carry me throughOh, give me the beat, boys, to soothe my soul
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away
Yeah, give me the beat, boys, to soothe my soul
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift awayAnd when my mind is free, no melody can move me
When I'm feelin' blue, guitars are comin' through to soothe meAnd thanks for the joy that you've given me
I want you to know I believe in your song
And the rhythm and the rhyme and the harmony
You help me along, makin' me strongGive me the beat, boys, to soothe my soul
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away, yeah
Give me the beat, boys, to soothe my soul
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away, yeahOh, give me the beat, boys, to soothe my soul
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away
Oh, give me the beat, boys, to soothe my soul
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away, yeahWon't you help me
Won't you help me
Won't you help me
And drift away
