lirik lagu sura hertzberg - rabbit fur coat

rabbit fur coat lyrics
i was of poor folk
but my mother had a rabbit fur coat
then a girl of less character
pushed her down the l.a. river
“hand over that rabbit fur coat”

she put a knife to her throat
“hand over that rabbit fur coat”
when my ma refused, the girl kicked dirt on her blouse
“stay away from my mansion house”

my mother really suffered for that
spent her life in a gold~plated body cast
now, you ask, did she get that girl back?
she paid a visit to that mansion house

she knew the girl was not there
but her father was in cufflinks
with sl!cked~back black hair
he invitеd her in, they nevеr sang a note
but she took off that rabbit fur coat

and who do you think came home?
miss so and so
she took one look at my ma and what did she say?
“why are you stealin’ from our mansion house?”
“no, i’m in love with mr. so and so
he invited me in, i’m a girl no more”
then she dragged my ma out by her throat
“hand over that rabbit fur coat”

let’s move ahead twenty years, shall we?
she was waitressin’ on welfare
we were living in the valley
a lady says to my ma, “you treat your girl as your spouse
you can live in a mansion house”

and so we did
and i became a hundred thousand dollar kid
when i was old enough to realize
wiped the dust from my mother’s eyes
is all this for that rabbit fur coat?

but i’m not bitter about it
i packed up my things and let them have at it
and the fortune faded, as fortunes often do
and so did that mansion house

where my ma is now, i don’t know
she was livin’ in her car, i was livin’ on the road
and i hear she’s puttin’ that stuff up her nose
and still wearing that rabbit fur coat
but mostly, i’m a hypocrite
i sing songs about the deficit
but when i sell out and leave omaha, what will i get?
a mansion house and a rabbit fur coat
