Lyrics Dark Undercoat - Emily Jane White

Dark Undercoat

The axes who pacify with gold and they walk right into town
And a man stood, he was brought back by lady luck
And he was so strong and he was so strong and he was so strong
He was so strong, he was so strong, he was strong
He said, «Lady where’s your dark undercoat?»
Then he rode away and he rode away and he died
Said I am not strong and I am not wide and I am not long
I am not strong and I am not wide, I’m not long
Oh but if I was a deep bathtub would you sink down
To the bottom of my love?
And if I was a deep bathtub would you sink down
To the bottom of my love?
But I am not strong and I am not wide and I am not long
I am not strong and I am not wide and we are not tall
Oh cowboy, ride the time
Ride it high with rhythm and rhyme
To the sound of a bleeding ghost train
And a needing to let go of tidal pain
He said, «Lady where’s your dark undercoat?»
Then he rode away and he rode away and he died
Said I am not strong and I am not wide and I am not long
I am not strong and I am not wide, I will not talk
Oh but if I was a deep bathtub would you sink down
To the bottom of my love?
And if I was a deep bathtub would you sink down
To the bottom of my love?
But I am not strong and I am not wide and I am not long
I am not strong and I am not wide and we are not tall
Oh cowboy, ride the time
Ride it high with rhythm and rhyme
To the sound of a bleeding ghost train
And a needing to let go of tidal pain
And a needing to let go of tidal pain
