Lyrics Merle Haggard

Merle Haggard

Driftwood

I'm just driftwood

Drifting with the winds that blow across the sky

I can't always be here with you, babe

I'm just driftwood drifting by

Our lives came together

Somehow we came to mingle for a while

Like two colors of the rainbow

We blended well together for a while

But I won't ever anchor down

The Lord above has numbered all my days

I'm just driftwood

And I think it's time I drifted on aways

I'm just driftwood

Drifting with the winds that blow across the sky

I can't always be here with you, babe

I'm just driftwood drifting by
