The Coat Lyrics - Guy Clark

When the sun comes up I'll know when I've got no where left to hide 

I need some scambled eggs and whiskey on the side 

Got a bad taste in my mouth, 

Something I said 

Numb is all I feel man I shouldn't have gone to bed 

There's a wind from out of nowhere bound to blow me away 

Throw me a rope, 

I've had a bad day 

I walked out and left my coat 

And now the weathers turning cold 

I don't feel so smart, I don't feel so bold 

And it smells like rain 

And it feels like heaven 

Wish me luck and fare me well 

Now there's nothing left to take back 

There's nothing to regret 

The sooner I get moving 

The sooner I get wet 

There's nothing left unsaid 

There's nothing left undone 

Well if I hadn't left my coat 

I'd be already gone 

And it smells like rain 

And it feels like heaven 

Wish me luck and fare me well 

And it smells like rain 

And it feels like heaven 

Where do I go now 

Think I'll go back and get my coat
