“Cold blows the wind and hard against my back!”
Cries the lonesome traveler traveling down the track
“The cold wind and the Sun compete for the cloak that’s on my back!
Oh, the cold wind and the Sun compete for the cloak that’s on my back.”
Oh Lord, I can’t go back
I can’t go back again
Keep me on a narrow path
So I can see the light again
For the cold wind and the Sun compete for the cloak that’s on my back
Oh, the cold wind and the Sun compete for the cloak that’s on my back
Bitter are the winter days
In the years of looking back
Rain beats down upon my face
Like the tears for the love I lack
And the cold wind and the Sun compete for the cloak that’s on my back
Oh, the cold wind and the Sun compete for the cloak that’s on my back
Salt to keep the wound alive
And the meat from going bad
One man’s gain is another’s loss
And now loss is all he has
For the cold wind and the Sun compete for the cloak that’s on my back
Oh, the cold wind and the Sun compete for the cloak that’s on my back
The cloak that’s on my back
The cloak that’s on my back
