[Verse 1]
I found comfort and courage in bottles of whiskey
I swear to you, friend, that that life is some risky
I have backed away quickly from those that would burn me
And stopped up my ears that no one should learn me
[Chorus]
But the lady beside me is the one I have chosen
To walk through my life like a coat from the cold
[Verse 2]
I have flown like a bird from each cage that confined me
And broken every one of the ties that would bind me
And I have danced me around some sad old situations
And taken up my share of them sweet invitations
[Chorus]
But the lady beside me is the one I have chosen
To walk through my life like a coat from the cold
To walk through my life like a coat from the cold
Like a Coat from the Cold was written by Guy Clark.
Like a Coat from the Cold was produced by Neil Wilburn.
