Joseph's Coat Lyrics

Quicksilver Messenger Service Joseph's Coat

Jospeph's Coat (John Cipollina/Nick Gravenites)
Joseph's many coloured coat
left him lyin' in the moat
He lived his life
as prince and slave
and in the end forgave
You wanna feel like a man
then act like a man
You wanna be like a man
then act like one yeah
You live your life
by bein' fair
you'll find that
your strength lies there
for pigs and armies
will fight in vain
against a natural main
You wanna feel like a man
then act like a man
you wanna be like a man
then act like a man
The road of life
is dark and steep
sometimes it's like a
nightmare creepin'
If you don't give for what you take
you may never wake
