The Last DaysIt was a dry and thirsty road That brought us to this place Grab a chair and sit with me for a while At the end of these last days We can talk about the good times Before the hurtful things That blew across our lives like a killing wind A dust storm of broken dreams Chorus: When I started out I packed light That's not the way I'll leave here Your memory is my postcard A broken heart my souvenir I never meant to make you cry I never thought we'd leave this land The last days of Rancho DeNada The last days of an old ranch hand You've been asleep for hours now It must be well past one I wish I'd never picked up a bottle Or known another woman The drought killed the crops in the fields While we drowned in our pain A deluge of hatred, whiskey and lies That fell around us like rain Bridge: You spend your life waiting For something better to come along And just when that last grain falls You realize you had it all wrong Chorus: When I started out I packed light That's not the way I'll leave here Your memory is my postcard A broken heart my souvenir I never meant to make you cry I never thought we'd leave this land The last days of Rancho DeNada The last days of an old ranch hand Copyright Kent Newsome and Ronnie Jeffrey All Rights Reserved |
