I’ve been thinking that it’s time for me to go
Pack my bags and get this show on the road
Thinking about the people that I’ve never seen
Thinking about the places I’ve never been
Not up for paying rent and earning a wage
You can’t keep a wild beast in cage
Constant wander-lust pulls me away
I gotta move don’t ask me to stay
I’m a drifter, a mover, I hold what I own
A mover, a loser, got nothing to show
A loser, a drifter, I got no home
Drifter mover loser waster hippy dopehead airhead
I’m a drifter, a mover, I hold what I own
A mover, a loser, got nothing to show
A loser, a drifter, I got no home
Drifter mover loser waster hippy dopehead airhead
I try to avoid all responsibility
I hate to have someone else depend on me
Gotta keep moving, that’s the secret of life
No bills no job no kids no dog no house and no wife
Can’t pin me down coz my spirit is free
Can’t make me stay, no use talking to me
Can’t wake me up till I’ve had twelve hours of sleep
Can’t make me think coz I inhale too deep
I’m a drifter, a mover, I hold what I own
A mover, a loser, got nothing to show
A loser, a drifter, I got no home
Drifter mover loser waster hippy dopehead airhead
I’m a drifter, a mover, I hold what I own
A mover, a loser, got nothing to show
A loser, a drifter, I got no home
Drifter mover loser waster hippy dopehead airhead
I’m a hippy loser dopehead
Hippy loser dopehead
Hippy loser dopehead
Hippy loser dopehead, man
So now it’s time to say goodbye to you all
You fed me and you housed me and it’s been a ball
So glad to have friends with goodwill to abuse
I found a little cash and I’ve taken your shoes
I’m a drifter, a mover, I hold what I own
A mover, a loser, got nothing to show
A loser, a drifter, I got no home
Drifter mover loser waster hippy dopehead airhead
I’m a drifter, a mover, I hold what I own
A mover, a loser, got nothing to show
A loser, a drifter, I got no home
Drifter mover loser waster hippy dopehead airhead
I’m a drifter
