Driftin' In
(A. Hill)



well she sails the ocean wide
on a fearless driftin' tide
searching for a light upon the shore
a sparkling glass of wine
a flashing neon sign
a harbor she can slip in for one more

chorus:
driftin' in
driftin' in
holding helpless on a sea of lies and gin
you may think that she's gone under
hoping she'll rise up again
'cause every bars a harbor
when she comes driftin' in

every day she puts to sea
searching for a memory
a sailor who has left her far behind
when evening rushes in
she will head out on the wind
and slip into the first bar she can find

repeat chorus

she's a lonely sailor girl
driftin' all around the world
leaving empty bottles in her wake
she may never find her man
but she'll always find dry land
'cause a splash of water's more than she can take
