Steve Hackett - Man In The Long Black Coat - "She never said nothing there was nothing she wrote She gone with the man in the long black coat"
She gone with the man in the long black coat...
Crickets are chirping the water is high Theres a soft cotton dress on the line hanging dry Windows wide open African trees Bent over backward from a hurricane breeze
Not a word of goodbye not even a note She gone with the man in the long black coat
Somebody seen him hanging around At the old dance hall on the outskirts of town He looked into her eyes when she stopped him to ask If she wanted to dance he had a face like a mask
Somebody said from The Bible he quote There was dust on the man in the long black coat
Preacher was a talking theres a sermon he gave He said every mans conscience is vile and depraved You cannot depend on it to be your guide When its you who must keep it satisfied
It aint easy to swallow it sticks in the throat To give her heart to the man in the long black coat
There are no mistakes in life some people say And its true sometimes you can see it that way Well people dont live or die people just float She went with the man in the long black coat
Theres smoke on the water its been there since June Tree trunks uprooted neath the high crescent moon With a pulse and vibration and the rumbling force Someone is out there beating on a dead horse
She never said nothing there was nothing she wrote She gone with the man in the long black coat
