[Verse 1] If I roll out tomorrow, Would you still call my name? The highway keeps on pulling, And here I can’t remain. [Verse 2] I’ve been chasing down the sunrise, Through the smoke and through the rain. Every mile I leave behind me, Cuts the ties but keeps the pain. [Pre‑Chorus] The road don’t wait for dreamers, It only calls the strong. I can’t be tied to shadows, I’ve been drifting all along. [Chorus] And I’m bound to be a drifter, No chains can hold me down. If I leave here come the morning, I’ll be gone from this old town. [Verse 3] The night is full of thunder, The stars are burning bright. I can’t stay 'cause I must wander, I was born to ride the night. [Bridge (instrumental lead-in)] So let the guitars keep crying, Let the drums roll like the storm. I’ll carry love inside me, But I’ll never be reformed. [Outro (repeated refrain)] And I’m bound to be a drifter… Bound to be a drifter… Bound to be a drifter… Bound to be a drifter…
