Faded pictures in an old scrapbook Faded pictures that somebody took When you were hard and young and proud Back against the wall running raw and loud
Snakeskin vest and a sharkskin suit Cuban heels on your boots Kick in the band and side by side You take the crowd on their mystery ride
Knights of Columbus and the Fireman's Ball Friday night at the Union Hall Black leather clubs all along Route 9 You count the names of the missing as you count off time
Flock of angels lift me somehow Somewhere high and hard and loud Somewhere deep into the heart of the crowd I'm the last man standing now I'm the last man standing now
Out of school and out of work Thrift store jeans and flannel shirt The lights go down and we face the crowd The last man standing now
Lights come up at the Legion Hall Pool cues go back up on the wall You pack your guitar and have one last beer With just the ringing in your ears
Flock of angels lift me somehow Somewhere high and hard and loud Somewhere deep into the heart of the crowd I'm the last man standing now I'm the last man standing now I'm the last man standing now
