Dead Man's Jacket

from Gallows Humour by Rootwork

/

lyrics

It's a dead man's jacket
At the end of my bunk
It was a dead man's jacket
It's all mine

What does that make me?

Ten men stand tall, resplendent in their red
Till the end of their days
I'm an old fool’s burden
He's all mine

Gallows humour is all I've got
Crippling sense of something missing

At least the alcohol is cheap
I might get to see the queen before I go
Anyone who visits me
I can stand tall in my jacket with pride
I can stand tall with pride

Gallows humour is all I've got
Crippling sense of something missing
Help me get to sleep at night
Wipe my mind of this helpless feeling

Wipe my mind of this helpless feeling
