Like A Coat From The Cold

(الألبوم: Old No. 1 - 1975)

I found comfort and courage from bottles of whiskey
I swear to you friends these old high times sure seem risky
I have backed away gently from those who tried to burn me
And blocked up my ears that no one should learn me

But the lady beside me is the one I have chosen
To walk through life with me
Like a coat from the cold

I have flown like a bird from every cage that confined me
And broken every one of the ties that bind me
I have danced me around some sad ol' sad ol' situations
And taken my share of those sweet invitations

But the lady beside me is the one I have chosen
To walk through life with me
Like a coat from the cold
