Drifter Lyrics

If the world can be my oyster
Then it's high time to explore
I'll be soaking up my problems
As I leave them at the shore
And the wind set sail to nowhere
Cause I don't care where it blows
See as long as I'm a drifter
I don't worry anymore

Million dollar boat, million dollar breeze
Steer clear to the top of the world with ease
Diddy money dirty, chillin' cross seas
No need for thank you I do what I please

I'm a drifter, yeah
No I don't know where to be
I'm a drifter, yeah
No it really ain't much to see
Around and around, feet off the ground
Never got nothing holding me
Cause I'm a drifter, yeah
And this is all I'll ever need

When you think that I'll be staying
I'm always one foot out the door
See my vacancy will hurt you
Throw my picture on the floor
But I'm just too loose to settle
Yeah I'm always wanting more
Guess as long as I'm a drifter
Hope I wind up on your shore

Smooth operator, real earth shaker
It's my fault-zone again splitting the heart acre
Tell me that you miss me, blame me for the cracks
But I can fill them in whenever I come back

Watch me drift like Tokyo
Makin' that ching like the money low
It's a ten-to-one split that's my ratio
Cause I spit it like a man, no Pinocchio
And I don't really care if you call me corny
Guess you don't know the kinda girls from NE
Husker in the game, you can call me Herbie

Karmin were Amy Heidemann (Vocals/Guitar) and Nick Noonan (Vocals/Cajon) from Boston, Massachusetts. The Brokenhearted Songfacts reports that their name derives from the Latin word 'carmen,' meaning "song," with a slightly altered spelling to "hint at karma."

The pair first gained recognition from their covers of popular Hip-Hop and Pop songs posted on YouTube. After offers from various record companies, the duo signed with Sony and Epic Records in June 2011.

Karmin is a collision of Nick’s Classic Rock upbringing and Jazz education (a trained trombonist) and Amy’s R&B influence and Pop background. Together they found music at its simplest form, percussion and voice.

In 2017, the duo took a break on Karmin to focus on another project known as "Qveen Herby". Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
