Hey, let him follow you down
Way underground
Wind and he's bound
Bound to follow you down
Just a dead beat
Right off the street
Bound to follow you down
Well, the ballrooms
And smelly bordellos
And dressing rooms
Filled with parasites
On stage the band has got problems
They're a bag of nerves
On first nights
He ain't tied down
To no home town
Yeah, and he thought
He was wreckless
You think he's bad
He thinks you're mad
Yeah, and the guitar player gets restless
And his coat is torn and frayed
It's seen much better days
Just as long as the guitar plays
Let it steal your heart away
Steal your heart away
His coat is torn and frayed
It's seen much better days
Just as long as the guitar plays
Let it steal your heart away
Joe's got a cough
Sounds kind a rough
Yeah, and the codeine to fix it
Doctor prescribes
Drug store supplies
Who's gonna help him to kick it?
And his coat is torn and frayed
It's seen much better days
Just as long as the guitar plays
Let it steal your heart away
Steal your heart away
And his coat is torn and frayed
It's seen much better days
Just as long as the guitar plays
Just as long as the guitar plays
Just as long as the guitar plays
