Lyrics Don't Let Go The Coat - The Who

Don't Let Go The Coat

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
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.
