Driftwood

[Intro]

Oh baby, let me sing it for you, now woah, no

[Verse 1]

Hey Bruce, untie my noose

Open up a bottle of whatever you choose

You see the naked truth, is only true sometimes

And if you're looking for lies, that's what you gon' find

[Chorus]

I gotta free my soul from the troubles of lately

Follow my heart wherever it takes me

Let it float on by like a piece of driftwood

Like a piece of driftwood, woah, like a piece of driftwood, woah

[Verse 2]

You win some, you lose some and some that you win, you really lose, don't you?

You get some, you give some, you trade a little piece of your youth

But nothing makes me happier than singing the blues, woah no

I set my big brown hat to my black pointed shoes I

[Chorus]

I gotta free my soul from the troubles of lately

Follow my heart wherever it takes me

Let it float on by like a piece of driftwood

Like a piece of driftwood

[Bridge]

Ain't no mind to these troubles on the telephone lines

The sun still shines, we got porter and wine

It's time to start thinking, got no time to decline

The earth awakes you, yes, the simple pleasures of mind

Yours if you want, you got time in the day

Find wealth in the loving and you never be grey

The piece missing from the puzzle is the piece that you need

Piece of mind, you gonna find and meditate by the sea

Be free with all trees in all the air that you breathe, just breathe

They can't take away your soul but they can take all your pride

Slow ride, that's right we gonna sleep in that forest tonight

Oh we gonna go, I'm gonna sleep in that forest tonight, alright, but it's our life

[Chorus]

Cause I gotta free my soul from the troubles of lately

Follow my heart wherever it takes me

Let it float on by like like like like

Oh like a piece of driftwood

Free my soul from the troubles of lately

Follow my heart wherever it takes me, let it float on by
