Susto Stringband Lyrics

"Last Chance Linda"

We pulled into the car park
Early sun beating down
I said there ain't no way
That this old bar is pourin' drinks right now
She saw us through the window
And invited us on in
Said she ain't seen an old time string-band here
Since she can't remember when

She had long blonde braids
And crystal eyes that I will not soon forget
Old tattoos on her sun baked skin
Not a single one she'd regret
Said she used to play the fiddle
Back in Ohio way before
She started tendin' bar for the biker gangs
Here at the Last Chance Liquor Store

Last chance Linda
Last chance Linda
Try to remember
Them old time fiddle runs
It's your last chance Linda
We ain't coming back down O.C. highway 1

Behind the bar there was a step stool
She took her fiddle off the wall
Squintin' eyes and shaky hands
She started playin' for us all
But a three string outta tune fiddle
Is a mighty hard one to play
So Linda smiled and we all joined in
Singin' Old and in the Way

Last chance Linda
Last chance Linda
Try to remember
Them old time fiddle runs
It's your last chance Linda
We ain't coming back on O.C. highway 1

Last chance Linda
Last chance Linda
Try to remember
Last chance Linda

Last chance Linda
Last chance Linda
Try and remember
Last chance Linda
