Last Stand Harry Chapin

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
