Last Leaf Tom Waits

I'm the last leaf on the tree
The autumn took the rest
But they won't take me
I'm the last leaf on the tree

When the autumn wind blows
They're already gone
They flutter to the ground
'Cause they can’t hang on

There's nothing in the world
That I ain't seen
I greet all the new ones
That are coming in green

I'm the last leaf on the tree
The autumn took the rest
But they won't take me
I'm the last leaf on the tree

They say I got staying power
Here on the tree
But I've been here since Eisenhower
And I've outlived even he

I'm the last leaf on the tree
The autumn took the rest
But they won't take me
I'm the last leaf on the tree
