Dead Man's Jacket Songtext
von Rootwork

It′s a dead man's jacket
At the end of my bones
It was a dead man′s jacket
It's all mine

Born of bad things move
Born of bad things move
Ten men stand tall
Resplendent in their red
Till the end of their days
Of an old fool's burden
Is all mine


Gallows humour′s all I got
Crippling sense of sinking misery
Help me get to sleep at night
Wipe my mind of this helpless feeling
At least the alcohol is cheap

I might get to see the Queen before I go
Anyone who visits me
I can stand tall in my jacket with pride

I can stand tall with pride
I can stand tall with pride

Gallows humour′s all I got
Crippling sense of sinking misery
Help me get to sleep at night
Wipe my mind of this helpless feeling

Wipe my mind of this helpless feeling
Wipe my mind of this helpless feeling
Wipe my mind of this helpless feeling
