The Drifter Lyrics
He came from a settlement some miles away
They looked at him oddly
Strange the things he would say
So sharp so hard
Amused by his words
He walked on in search of a bride to call his own
I'll dine with you at the wedding feast
A drifter to most folks
But some could see that he was wise
No beggar was this man
He said he came to give life
Oh in a circus show they might have let it slide
But now they give him threats
They say he'll have to die
Oh this traveling ma all he ever wanted was a bride
I'll dine with you at the wedding feast

I cried when he died
It seemed to make no sense
To kill a man for loving you is to kill yourself instead
I wish i knew but i can't explain when i hear the drifter say
You can't kill a dead man
He's alive just the same
