Cat Power — The Coat Is Always On lyrics

Lyrics

Mother donЂ™t sit
Mother donЂ™t stand
Mother donЂ™t send me.
Sister come and lay your head on me
I can see you havenЂ™t had any sleep in a long time.
That babyЂ™s gonna be so easy on me Never see his smile
Never see his face.
Father said he was gonna give me something
He gave me hate.
Mother donЂ™t sit
Mother donЂ™t stand
Mother donЂ™t send me.
Brother canЂ™t even speak
HeЂ™s got a tongue and two legs to walk on And he can leave
Brother is old and grey
Brother is old and grey
Brother is old and grey
And heЂ™s only
HeЂ™s only seventeen.
Father said he was gonna give me something
He gave me hate.
Mother donЂ™t sit
Mother donЂ™t stand
Mother please donЂ™t send me.
What happened to home
What happened to home sweet
What happened to home sweet
Home.
