If I appear to be holdin' on tight
You'd be right, I've been holdin' on for dear life
The way that it's all been goin', there's talk I just might
Be the last of, the last in a long lonesome line

I made mistakes I won't try to defend
God knows what I've been through to get where I am
They say the blood in my body is agein' like wine
I'm the last of, the last in a long lonesome line

For better or worse
I have lived life so fast
I wasn't the first
Hate to think I'm the last
Of the last in a long lonesome line

Tears an' whiskey, yeah, I spilled my share
But it's the music that's kept me goin' through all of these years
An' there's some songs still need singin' before closin' time
From the last of, the last in a long lonesome line

For better or worse
I have lived life so fast
I wasn't the first
Hate to think I'm the last
Of the last in a long lonesome line
Oh, I'm the last of, the last in a long lonesome line
