Driftwood Lyrics

Let me sing it for you now now now oh oh
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 gonna find
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 whoo

La-like a piece of driftwood
whoa whoa whoah
You win some, you lose some
And some that you win, you really lose (don't cha?)
You get some, you give some
You trade a little piece of your youth (oh)
But nothing makes me happier than singing the blues

Set my big brown hat to my black pointed shoes
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
La-like a piece of driftwood
Hmmm mmm mmm
Ain't no mind to these troubles on the telephone lines
The sun still shines, we got board and a wine
It's time to start baking, got no time to decline
The earth awakes you, yes, simple pleasures of mine
Yours if you want them, you got time in the day
Find wealth in the living and you'll never be grave
A piece is missing from your puzzle
It's the piece that you need
Peace of mind you gonna find 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 the forest tonight
Oh we gonna gonna
I'm gonna sleep in the forest tonight
Alright
Here what it sound like
Coz I gotta free my soul from the trouble of lately
Follow my heart wherever it takes me
Let in float on by like like like
Oh like piece of driftwood
I gotta free my soul from the troubles of lately
Follow my heart wherever it takes me
Let it float on by
