"Leatherman" is a song by Pearl Jam. It first appeared as a B-side on the "Given to Fly" single. It was originally recorded during the sessions for Pearl Jam's fifth album, Yield.
The song is also a part of the so-called "Man" trio ("Better Man", "Nothingman", "Leatherman") played occasionally at concerts.
The band decided not to include the song on the B-sides and rarities compilation, Lost Dogs.
[edit] Lyrical meaning
The song was inspired by the Leatherman, a vagabond of unconfirmed identity who traveled a circuit between the Connecticut and Hudson Rivers from 1858-1889.
