Paul Kelly (Mushroom)  We were lovers once long ago  Walking through cold city streets like lovers do  Stopped inside a market  Kissed behind a stall  Someone said you'd better move on  if you're not buying at all  Then I saw the winter coat hanging on the rack  I thought about that winter coat  hanging on my back  So you helped me try it on  It was just my size  Then you bought that coat for me  after haggling over the price  Now when it's chilly  Up in these cold cold hills  I just put on my winter coat  My winter coat  Keeps me warm  Years have come along  Years have gone  Some friends have risen  Some have moved on  And my old winter coat still  hangs by my front door  Holding all the stories  I don't remember anymore  And when it gets freezing  Up in these cold cold hills  I just put on my winter coat  My winter coat  Keeps me warm  My winter coat  My winter coat  My winter coat  My winter coat
