Peter, Paul & Mary: Old Coat

aus dem Album: Moving

Songtext:
Take off your old coat and roll up your sleeves, Homepagegestaltung Leverkusen
Life is a hard road to travel, i believe.
Schilder und Beschriftungen
I look to the east, i look to the west,
A youth asking fate to be rewardin'. Morgenstundler
But fortune is a blind god, flying through the clouds,
And forgettin' me on this side of jordan. Baustrom

Take off your old coat and roll up your sleeves, Flyer drucken
Life is a hard road to travel, i believe.
Terrassenüberdachungen
Silver spoons to some mouths, golden spoons to others,
Dare a man to change the given order. Lena Gercke
Though they smile and tell us all of us are brothers,
Never was it true this side of jordan.

Take off your old coat and roll up your sleeves,
Life is a hard road to travel, i believe.

Like some ragged owlet with its wings expanded,
Nailed to some garden gate or boardin'.
Thus will i by some men all my life be branded
Never hurted none this side of jordan.

Take off your old coat and roll up your sleeves,
Life is a hard road to travel, i believe.
