An Old Raincoat Won't Ever Let You Down

(rod stewart)



Did you ever stand and shiver

While looking at a freezing river

Have you froze to the bone

With just a coat to keep you warm

To keep you from a howlin' wind

To keep you from a howlin' wind

Now listen



Have you perished in the drizzling rain

Tried to light ...	a lift but all in vain

With your sock on your head

And that old coat on your back

To keep you from the drizzlin' rain

Oh to keep you from the drizzlin' rain

Goodbye



One more time



Did you sleep in a graveyard when it snowed

Laid your head on a	.....

With the times on your face

And that old coat on your back

That kept you from a-withering away good god

It just kept you from a-withering away



I know



And did you ride a lift on a steam train

Now listen

Had the misfortune not to pay your fare

Thrown off the next stop

Thrown in the doorway of a shop

With that coat to keep you from the wind

Oh that old school coat to keep you from the wind

And that ain't all



Have you had some good friends on the road with ya

Who'd stand by you through thick and thin

Here's to kevin and ben, susie and len

And that coat which never lets you down

It never, never, never lets you down

It never, never, never lets you down

That old coat which never lets you down

That old coat which never lets you down

Kept me from the drizzlin' rain

And oh, kept me from the drizzlin' rain
