Two Coats (Jubilee Version)
[Verse 1]
Two coats laid before me, an old and the new
And I could have either of them 'less I do
One coat was ugly and terribly torn
The other, a new one and never been worn
[Refrain]
And I'll tell you the best thing I ever did do
I laid off the old one and put on the new
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 2]
The old coat was earthy and not meant to wear
I pulled it off and shed me a tear
When there was a new one presentеd to me
I laid off the old one and put on thе new
[Refrain]
I'll tell you the best thing I ever did do
I laid off the old coat and put on the new
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
The old coat was earthly and greenish brown
The other bears His image the whole world goes 'round
The next was my savior over from Heaven so fair
He gave me his new coat that you see me wear
[Refrain]
I'll tell you the best thing I ever did do
I laid off the old coat and put on the new
