I'm driftin', I'm driftin'

like a ship out on the sea

I'm driftin' 3x

like a ship out on the sea

No, I ain't got nobody

in the world to care for me

if me baby would only take me back again, back again 2x

I know I'm a good for nothing

and I haven't got no friends

listen to me honey

I gave you all my money

tell me tell me tell me tell me

what more can I do

didn't I gave tou all my money

now tell me what more can I do

I'll relaize you're a good little girl

but it seems that you won't be true

seems like I got to tell you

baby, bye bye

bye bye baby

listen to me

I know you gonna miss me

this time you gonna be the one to cry
