Talk:It's My Life (The Animals song)

Sable mentioned in It's My Life
In the song It's My Life by The Animals, they sing "Though I'm dressed in these rags / I'll wear sable some day". What are they referring to in this instance? Is it cloths made from the animal or was (is?) "Sable" the label of some designer clothing? Jason Quinn (talk) 20:20, 16 December 2009 (UTC)
 * A fur coat, that's all. Black fur, it was masculine and very expensive, like white mink for a woman. A sable coat was a status symbol indicating wealth and luxury. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.161.90.187 (talk) 04:30, 25 January 2011 (UTC)
 * I just wanted to say that I've heard others confused by this and thought it was a good idea to link to sable. But an anon thought it was a common word. Hoof Hearted (talk) 12:24, 25 March 2013 (UTC)

End of last Verse
Along with Zombies, Searchers, Them, Stones...we did several Animals songs in my band during 1964-66. There were several songs, we just couldn't detect the proper lyrics and just sang something that sounded phoenitcally like the record. In some cases we inserted something silly just to see whether anyone would catch it. In "Its My Life"...we sang "Lovely women and their fortunes, Who just want to 'mother coffins'.  We weren't all that far off.  But the last verse had us baffled.  "...no comlaints, so girl go out and canada" was what we went with.  Now looking at various sources, we get different lyrics....

So girl go and Hand it out or: So girl throw out Any doubt — Preceding unsigned comment added by Smudge801 (talk • contribs) 21:50, 25 September 2011 (UTC)
