Give me the beat boys
Give me the beat boys
Day after day I'm more confused
But I look for the light through the pouring rain
You know that's a game that I hate to lose
I'm feeling the strain
Ain't it a shame
(Chorus)
Give me the beat boys and free my soul
I wanna get lost in the rock and roll
And drift away
I'm beginning to think that I'm wasting my time
And I don't understand the things I do
The world outside looks so unkind
Now it's up to you
To carry me through
(to Chorus)
And when my mind is free
You know the melody can move me
And when I'm feeling blue
The guitar's coming through to soothe me
Thanks for the joy you've given me
I want you to know that I believe in the song
You help me along
You're making me strong
Give me the beat boys
Give me the beat boys
(to Chorus)
