Last Man Standing lyrics
There s a tyre on the rope above the swimming hole
Where Danny and Dave and Tim would go
Make up stories bout girls they know
Brothers and best friends
Now the dam s dried up and the rope is frayed
Danny and Dave they ran away
Timmy he just had to stay

Cause he s the last man standing on this ground
He was raised on this land and he ain t leaving now
All the other boys have packed up and gone
Leaving him to carry on
"Cause he s the last man standing

Mama took a job at the General Store
Timmy built a ramp from the front porch door
"Cause Daddy can t do much round here anymore
He just sits and stares

And it breaks his heart not to lend a hand
He says "There s too much work for just one man"
Timmy says "Dad don t you understand?"

"Cause I m the last man standing on the ground
I was raised on this land and I won t let you down

All your other boys have packed up and gone
You can count on me to carry on
"Cause I m the last man standing

Sometimes late at night he dreams
Of places he won t see
But he says "All they ve got is me"

Now he s the last man standing on this ground
He was raised on this land and he ain t leaving now
All the other boys have packed up and gone
Leaving him to carry on
He s the last man standing on this ground
He won t let his mama and his daddy down
All the other boys have packed up and gone
They can count on him to carry on
"Cause he s the last man standing.
