Driftwood On The River Composer(s): John Klenner - Bob Miller
Performer(s): Ernest Tubb
and multiple other artists
Im just driftwood on the river floating down the tide I dont care where this old river carries me I keep drifting just because my heart is broken inside And Im tired of wishing for what can not be I may meet some bit driftwood lost the same as I Share a handshake and a tender tear or two But its always good luck pal weve got to say goodbye I must wonder on to keep my rendezvous
Though I drift from town to city I can never stay For I find no place to call my home sweet home I dont ask for help or pity I just go my way All Im praying for is peace to dream alone
Im just driftwood on the river and Im driftin on Till this weary river meets the deep blue sea Where the deep blue sea may help me to forget someone Yes, the careless one who has forgotten me In my heart I dont feel bitter over what has been I feel sorry for the one I must forget And in stead of being someone with the world to win Im just driftwood on the river of regret
