Driftin’ Blues Lyrics By Bobby Bland

    well i’m drifting and drifting
    like a ship out on the sea
    and i’ve been drifting and drifting baby
    drifting just like a ship out on the sea

    oh and you know
    i ain’t got nobody now baby
    in this great big world
    to care for me

    if my baby would only
    take me back again
    i wish my my my my baby
    would stop fooling around
    and take me back again

    well you know you know
    i messed around out here
    now baby yeah let me tell you
    i don’t even have no friend

    i gave you all of my money baby
    tell me what more can i do
    lord after i gave you
    all of my money baby
    pray tell me what more can i do

    yeah i know you may be a
    good little girl sometimes now baby
    but i’m standing here to tell you
    i know you’ll never be true

    and that is why
    that is why i got to say
    bye bye baby yeah

    bye bye baby
    lord bye bye bye
    bye bye bye baby
    baby bye bye

    oh lord i know
    i know it’s too late to worry
    lord too late to cry
    oh yeah cry
