I'm gonna be a modern day drifter

And get out while I can

Gonna trade in this life i've been livin

For a pocket full of sand

And a modern day drifter don't have to tell no one his plans



I'm gonna find that long stretch of highway

No one knows my name

Where as long as the sky just goes on

And it's never the same

A modern day drifter don't ever complain



Bye bye hi life

Feels like the right time

To say so long

Keep on goin strong

And i'll just keep on bein gone

Cause i'm gonna be a modern day drifter, Yes I am

Gonna slip this ring off my finger

Cause everybody understands

That a modern day drifter's got nothin but time on his hands



Bye bye hi life

Feels like the right time

To say so long

Keep on goin strong

And i'll just keep on bein gone

Cuse i'm gonna be a modern day drifter

Oh yes I am

Gonna slip this ring off my finger

Cause everybdy understands

That a modern day drifter's got nothin ut time on his hands
