Pearl Jam — Leatherman

I heard about a man to whom I may be related He's Leatherman Died a long time ago in the 1880s Leatherman, Leatherman Covered with leather, but it wasn't tight Underneath the moon in the woods at night Makin' the rounds ten miles a day Once a month they'd spot him, here's what they'd say "Here he comes, he's a man of the land He's Leatherman, smile on his face, an axe in his pack He's Leatherman, Leatherman, Leatherman." Comes out of the caves once a day to be fed Wasn't known to say much but "Thanks for the bread." So modern day I walk 'round with my jacket faded Just like a man of leather to whom I may be related Rolled cigarette for which he'd ask for a light I figured he'd be an animal, yet so polite Makin' 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, an axe in his hand He's Leatherman, Leatherman, Leatherman Leatherman, Leatherman" 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 Give me some skin, Leatherman
