bill ryder-jones - famous blue raincoat (cover) lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
it’s four in the morning, late in december
i’m writing you now just to see if you’re better
new york is cold, but i like where i’m living
there’s music on clinton street all through the evenin’
i hear that you’re building your little house deep in the desert
i hope that you’re keeping some kind of record

[chorus]
well, and jane came by with a lock of your hair
she said that you gave it to her
that night that you planned to go clear
did you ever go clear?

[verse 2]
but the last time we saw you, you looked so much older
your famous blue raincoat was torn at the shoulder
you’d been to the station to meet every train
you came home without your own lili marlene
and you treated my woman to a flake of your life
and when she came back, she was n0body’s wife

[chorus]
well, i see you there with a rose in your t++th
one more thin gypsy thief
well, i see jane’s awake
she sends her regards
[verse 3]
and what can i tell you, my brother, my k!ller?
what can i possibly say?
i guess that i miss you, i guess i forgive you
i’m glad that you stood in my way
if you ever come by for jane or for me
well, your enemy is sleeping and his woman is free

[chorus]
yes, and thanks for the trouble you took from her eye
i thought it was there for good, so i never tried
and jane came by with a lock of your hair
she said that you’d gave it to her
that night that you planned to go clear
sincerely, l. cohen
