Harry Chapin
Last Stand

It used to be that old John Wayne

Would fight the good fight once again,

Find the strength to bear the pain,

Stand up til he'd finally fall.



But now it's not just movie time,

And now it's you that's on the line.

And now it's you that's going to find

If you can stand at all.





So you circle all the wagons

And you hide behind the trees,

And you try to find some courage on your knees.

When you heard the sound of taps played

By the one man band,

You knew this is where you'd have to make

Your last stand.





And so, my friends, the last stand,

The last song from the last band,

The last note from the last man,

But you gave it all you can.



The cards came down to the last deal,

You're a starving man at his last meal,

And the movie's rolled down to the last real,

It's got an ending you never planned.



She's left you now, and so it seems,

You've tumbled down the last stream,

And you've found out that the final dream,

Can disappear so fast.



Watch it all just fade away, boy,

It came down to the last day,

And then the last out, and then the last play,

And you're alone at last.





So you circle all the wagons

And you hide behind the trees,

And you try to find some courage on your knees.

When you heard the sound of taps played

By the one man band,

You knew this is where you'd have to make

Your last stand.





Well, so it was late last night,

She left on the final flight

You watched as the last light

Went out there in your soul.



Took your look around the top,

For now you face the final drop.

You'll go down fast and you won't stop,

You found a very deep hole.



Say you're off on the last ride,

Remembering how she last cried,

And you know that love had long last died

In silence, not in pain.



You lost your last, your last race

Stumbled in last place,

Too late to find the one last face

Waiting in the rain.



So you circle all the wagons

And you hide behind the trees,

And you try to find some courage on your knees.

When you heard the sound of taps played

By the one man band,

You knew this is where you'd have to make

Your last stand.


Mirror lyrics:

Your last stand.

You knew this is where you'd have to make

By the one man band,

When you heard the sound of taps played

And you try to find some courage on your knees.

And you hide behind the trees,

So you circle all the wagons



Waiting in the rain.

Too late to find the one last face

Stumbled in last place,

You lost your last, your last race



In silence, not in pain.

And you know that love had long last died

Remembering how she last cried,

Say you're off on the last ride,



You found a very deep hole.

You'll go down fast and you won't stop,

For now you face the final drop.

Took your look around the top,



Went out there in your soul.

You watched as the last light

She left on the final flight

Well, so it was late last night,





Your last stand.

You knew this is where you'd have to make

By the one man band,

When you heard the sound of taps played

And you try to find some courage on your knees.

And you hide behind the trees,

So you circle all the wagons





And you're alone at last.

And then the last out, and then the last play,

It came down to the last day,

Watch it all just fade away, boy,



Can disappear so fast.

And you've found out that the final dream,

You've tumbled down the last stream,

She's left you now, and so it seems,



It's got an ending you never planned.

And the movie's rolled down to the last real,

You're a starving man at his last meal,

The cards came down to the last deal,



But you gave it all you can.

The last note from the last man,

The last song from the last band,

And so, my friends, the last stand,





Your last stand.

You knew this is where you'd have to make

By the one man band,

When you heard the sound of taps played

And you try to find some courage on your knees.

And you hide behind the trees,

So you circle all the wagons





If you can stand at all.

And now it's you that's going to find

And now it's you that's on the line.

But now it's not just movie time,



Stand up til he'd finally fall.

Find the strength to bear the pain,

Would fight the good fight once again,

It used to be that old John Wayne
