Old Coat Full Lyrics
[00:12.90] Take off your old coat, and roll up your sleeves
[00:27.06] Life is a hard road to travel, I believe
[00:43.19] I look to the east, I look through the west
[00:50.27] A youth asking fate to be rewardin'
[00:56.90] But fortune is a blind god flying through the clouds
[01:03.75] And forgettin' me on this side of Jordan
[01:12.80] Take off your old coat, and roll up your sleeves
[01:27.32] Life is a hard road to travel, I believe
[01:44.19] Silver spoons to some mouths, golden spoons to others
[01:51.61] Dare a man to change the given order
[01:57.92] Though they smile and tell us, "All of us are brothers"
[02:05.01] Never was it true this side of Jordan
[02:13.53] Take off your old coat, and roll up your sleeves
[02:28.06] Life is a hard road to travel, I believe
[02:44.71] Like some ragged owlet with its wings expanded
[02:52.03] Nailed to some garden gate or boardin'
[02:58.43] Thus will I by some men all my life be branded
[03:06.16] Never hurted none this side of Jordan
[03:14.13] Take off your old coat, and roll up your sleeves
[03:28.76] Life is a hard road to travel, I believe
[03:42.10]
