Day after day I'm more confused Yet I look for the light through the pouring rain You know that's a game that I hate to lose And I'm feelin' the strain Ain't it a shame Oh, give me the beat boys and free my soul I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away Oh, give me the beat boys and free my soul I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away Beginning to think that I'm wastin' time I don't understand the things I do The world outside looks so unkind And I'm countin' on you To carry me through Oh, give me the beat boys and free my soul I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away Yeah, give me the beat boys and free my soul I wanna 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 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've helped me along Makin' me strong Day after day I'm more confused Yet I look for the light through the pouring rain You know that's a game that I hate to lose And I'm feelin' the strain Ain't it a shame Oh, give me the beat boys and free my soul I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away Oh, give me the beat boys and free my soul I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away Beginning to think that I'm wastin' time I don't understand the things I do The world outside looks so unkind And I'm countin' on you To carry me through Oh, give me the beat boys and free my soul I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away Yeah, give me the beat boys and free my soul I wanna 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 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've helped me along Makin' me strong
