Souther Hillman
I am looking for the song with lyrics..”You are the sugar that makes everything sweeter than wine”?
This song is probably from the mid-1970′s….possibly something “southern rock”….other lyrics are “I want to walk through life with you like a coat from the cold”. This is really important to me as the guy that I was engaged too in high school wrote me the lyrics in a letter. He died in 2003 from thyroid cancer….I really need to find the song for sentimental reasons. Some of the groups that we listened too were: “The GratefulDead”…”Dave Mason”..”The Outlaws”..”The Eagles”…”The Souther Hillman Furay Band”…”Pure Prairie League”..”The Marshall Tucker Band”…”Charlie Daniels”..”Lynard Skynard”…If there is anyone out there that can help me with this, I will be so grateful! Thanks much…M

Lyrics for Song: Like A Coat From The Cold
Lyrics for Album: Essential
I found comfort and courage from bottles of whiskey.
I swear to you friends these old high times sure seem risky.
I have backed away gently from those who tried to burn me.
and blocked up my ears that no one should learn me.
Chorus
But the lady beside me is the one I have chosen
to walk through life with me
like a coat from the cold
I have flown like a bird from every cage that confined me
and broken every one of the ties that bind me
I have danced me around some sad ol’ sad ol situations
and taken my share of those sweet invitations
Chorus
This was all I could find about coats from the cold, but the other line isn’t in it. Couldn’t find anything on that. I’ll keep looking. Let me know if this is it.
