Drift Away Lyrics by Rod Stewart

Drift Away

[rod stewart, steve cropper, 1975/1976]

Never get to bed before sunup,
Alway get caught in the rain;
Sometimes I might get in trouble,
Never was one to complain.
Now gentleman, you must agree
Ain�t it worth it when you�re out on cloud thirty-three
To be stone cold sober again,
Down in the alley again,
Stone cold sober again.

Never found a dime in a gutter,
Always get my best friends drunk.
If the pres�dent tries to call me,
Say " rodney, come on over for lunch";
I�d say, " gentlemen, exuse me please
But I�m busy with my buddies up on cloud thirty-three."
Yeah, stone cold sober again,
Down in the alley again,
Stone cold sober again.

Sunday is a drag, so forget it,
Monday you can make up for that;
Tuesday, take a taste for dinner,
If you�re all right spend it in bed.
But on thursday prepare for your weekend
And let friday disappear into saturday mornin�
When you�re stone cold sober again,
Down in the alley again,
Stone cold sober again.
Stone cold sober again,
Down in the alley again,
Stone cold sober again.

I don�t mind stone cold sober again,
Down in the alley again,
Stone cold sober again.
