My suit jacket has grown so old,
Versions: #2My suit jacket has grown so old,
Like rags it droops and dampens my mood.
A man of major sorrow and woe,
I can’t buy new. Not anymore.
Once, I gave away many fine coats,
But now that I must do without dough,
On the street, no friend dares approach
After seeing my old tattered clothes.
Dress well, and they’ll look out for you.
Yes, they’ll trot right up close to you.
But, as if they themselves might wear away,
They shun the shabby, don’t say good day.
