 Driftin' East and driftin' West

Just a sailboat silhouette

Pirate soul with a sunkin' heart

Back there in your hometown

Having kids and doing fine

 It's all that I got left of you

Your pretty name in painted blue
          G            D
But every day it fades a little more
C             G                   C
 Well, I head back in a couple of days
          G                   C
Change my shirt and get a shave

Plant my feet back on the shore
