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   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   And I don't understand the things I do   The world outside looks so unkind   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 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      When my mind is free   You know a melody can move me   And when I'm feelin' blue   The guitar's comin' through to soothe me      Thanks for the joy that you've given me   I want you to know I believe in your song   And rhythm and rhyme and harmony   You helped me along, you're makin' me strong      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
