Driftwood on the River - Ernest Tubb
I'm just driftwood on the river floating
Down the tide
I don't care where this old river carries me
I keep drifting
Just because my heart is broken inside
And I'm tired of wishing
For what cannot be
I may meet some little driftwood lost
As same as I share a handshake
And a tender tear or two
But it's always good luck
How we got to say goodbye
I must wander on to keep my randezvous
Though I drift through town
And city I can never stay
For I find no place
To call my home sweet home
I don't ask for help
Or pitty I just go my way
All I'm praying for is peace to dream alone
I'm just driftwood on the river
And I'm drifting 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 don't feel bitter
Over what has been
I feel sorry for the one I must forget
And instead of being someone
With the world to win
I'm just driftwood on the river of regret
