The Last Of The Drifters

I'm the last of the babies of the world war 2

World war 2 and that's the one we didn't lose i heard that

I was raised on biscuits spam and powdered eggs

Dimaggio's baseball and marilyn's legs

And i'm the last of the drifters

Last of the drifters yeah

I remember when the great train they used to run on coal

And they would run on coal and i would be ready to go me too

Old white shirt and a tired overall

Sometime i think my daddy knew it all

And i'm the last of the drifters

Last of the drifters yeah

I remember louisiana in a hot steamy night

Hot steamy night and she was holding me tight

An old red chevy with a big back seat

I had me some two tall shoes off my feet

Okay i'm the last of the drifters

Last of the drifters yeah

I'm a world war baby holding mama's hand

Mama's hand and how my daddy knew the land

Truck bearin' music and poverty and wealth

I got some great big scars on myself

Now i'm the last of the drifters

Last of the drifters yeah

I'm the last tie roller with the last good hand

Last good hand and i'm a gambling man

All them bombs and people wakin' on that boom

Sometimes i reckon i got here too soon

I'm the last of the drifters

I'm the last of the drifters yeah

I'm the last of the drifters

Last of the drifters
