Drifter
Wandering Hearts: Embracing Freedom in Braxton Keith's Drifter
Lyrics
She don't really love you
She does not genuinely love you.
And she don't care to try
She is not willing to make an effort to care.
She's been broken hearted
Her heart has been broken multiple times.
One to many times
She has experienced heartbreak too often.
Relationships have screwed her
Previous relationships have hurt her.
And made her realize
Relationships have made her realize your lack of worth.
That you're not worth the breath it takes
Your value isn't worth the effort for her to say goodbye.
For her to say goodbye
It's advised to stay out of her way.
Best get out of her way
She is not seeking a relationship with a man at the moment.
She ain't looking for no man today
Her focus is on other things, not a romantic connection.
And all she wants is cold beer cans
Her desires include cold beer and honky tonks.
And honky tonks where she can dance
She enjoys dancing in places with strangers.
With strangers who will never know her name
She seeks anonymity in these encounters.
You can buy her a shot and spin her around
You can offer her a drink and dance, but be cautious.
But don't be surprised when she shoots you down
Expect rejection despite your efforts.
Steals your heart and two-steps right away
She may captivate you briefly but will move on swiftly.
In the same old rundown bar I doubt she'll stay
She is unlikely to stay in the same old bar for long.
Cause she's a Drifter yeah yeah yeah
She is described as a drifter, emphasizing her transient nature.
Cause she's a Drifter yeah yeah yeah
Reiteration of her identity as a drifter.
She don't need them brake lights
She doesn't pay attention to brake lights; she keeps moving forward.
She keeps that hammer down
She drives fast to reach the next enjoyable moment.
Hauling ass to the next good time
Constantly moving from one place to another.
Floating town to town
Her car is filled with all her belongings.
And that car of hers is loaded up
She carries her life with her as she drifts.
With everything she owns
Her next destination is uncertain and unknown.
And her next destination
Advice to stay out of her way remains relevant.
Is the one thing she don't know
She is not currently seeking a romantic connection.
Best get out of her way
Reiteration of the warning to avoid interfering with her path.
She ain't looking for no man today
Her focus is not on pursuing a relationship.
And all she wants is cold beer cans
Her desires include cold beer and honky tonks.
And honky tonks where she can dance
She seeks the company of strangers while dancing.
With strangers who will never know her name
Desire for anonymity and avoiding commitment.
You can buy her a shot and spin her around
Buying her a drink and dancing may not lead to a connection.
But don't be surprised when she shoots you down
Expect rejection despite your efforts.
Steals your heart and two-steps right away
She may briefly engage but will move on swiftly.
In the same old rundown bar I doubt she'll stay
The same old bar is unlikely to keep her for long.
Come closing time you'll watch those taillights fade
As the night ends, you'll see her leave.
Cause she's a Drifter yeah yeah yeah
Reiteration of her identity as a drifter.
She's a Drifter yeah yeah yeah
Confirmation of her identity as a drifter.
