I can't be held responsible for blown behaviour (2x)
I lost all contact with my only saviour (2x)
No-one locked me out, because I failed to phone up (2x)
I can't bear to live forever like a loner (2x).

Don't let go the coat (2x).

It's easy to be sad: when you lack a partner (2x)
But how would I react to a broken heart now (2x)
It ain't really true rock and roll unless I'm
Hanging onto you and when I hold it next time (2x).

I won't let go the coat (2x).

I try to explain but you never understand it (2x)
I need your body but I can't just demand it (2x)
I won't let go like a stray at heel (2x)
(Never let it out of your sight) (2x)
Every lonely wife knows the way I feel (2x)
(Don't let go tonight) (2x)
Don't let go the coat (2x)
Never let go the coat (2x).

Your friends all pass for life is just a market (2x)
But you have to finish everything you started (2x)
So I live my life tearing down the runway (2x)
Sure to get the hang of hanging in there someday (2x).

Don't let go the coat (2x)
Won't get no more chances, forget the war dances (2x)
Go blind and hang on, don't try the slang son (2x)
Never let go the coat (2x).
