I heard about a man to whom I may be related
He's leatherman
Died a long time ago in the 1880's he's leatherman leatherman
[00:12.00
Covered with leather but it wasn't tight
Underneath a moon in the woods at night
Making the rounds ten miles a day
Once a month they'd spot him and here's what they'd say
Here he comes he's a man of the land
He's leatherman
Smile on his face axe in his pack
He's leatherman leatherman leatherman
Comes out of the caves once a day to be fed
He wasn't known to stay much but thanks for the bread
So modern day I walk my way with my jacket faded
Just like a man of leather whom I may be related
Old cigarette for which he'd ask for a light
A fear beaten animal yet so polite
Making the rounds ten miles a day
Once a month they'd spot him and here's what they'd say
Here he comes he's a man of the land
He's leatherman
Smile on his face axe in his hand
He's leatherman leatherman leatherman
[01:46.00
Shake his hand he's leatherman
Bake some bread he's leatherman
Shame he's dead I saw his bed
It's all that's left of leatherman
Leatherman
Give me some skin
Leatherman
