The Who - DON'T LET GO THE COAT lyrics

I can't be held responsible for blown behaviour

I lost all contact with my only saviour

No-one locked me out because I failed to phone up

I can't bear to live forever like a loner

Don't let go the coat

It's easy to be sad: when you lack a partner

But how would I react to a broken heart now

It ain't really true rock and roll unless I'm

Hanging onto you and when I hold it next time

I won't let go the coat

I try to explain but you never understand it

I need your body but I can't just demand it

I won't let go like a stray at heel

(Never let it out of your sight)

Every lonely wife knows the way I feel

(Don't let go tonight)

Don't let go the coat

Never let go the coat

Your friends all pass for life is just a market

But you have to finish everything you started

So I live my life tearing down the runway

Sure to get the hang of hanging in there someday

Don't let go the coat

Won't get no more chances - forget the war dances

Go blind and hang on - don't try the slang son

Never let go the coat.
