"Last Of A Dying Breed" lyrics

I'm the last of long dying breed
I left the world as soon as the world left me
I leave all my problems in a fuel-fired pile
Along with the jeans and dreams I ain't worn in a while

I've lived a hell of a life and my scars show that
My life was rambling on and never getting called back
I was drowning in lemon, whiskey, bitters and the sin
The worst part of it all-it's not where the troubles begin

These days the cowboy term gets thrown around a lot
I remember the days back when the competition was hot
It meant trying your best and having a goddamn go
Not leaving the work to build behind in the February snow

I'm the last of a long dying breed
I watch the rain fall like TV
I hope it comes down all year 'round

Watch me go when they wind me up
Running amuck in a pick-up truck
Drinking about anything that I can pick up on the road eastbound
'Cause I'm the last of a dying breed

I see milk drinkers in every single town
Making sure that life is hell for the thrill seekers around
And they've never had a beer on the banks of a back-roads county creek
So why the hell should they tell me what I really long to seek

Don't get me wrong, I ain't the toughest of the pen
But I miss the day when young boys were called men
Treat a lady right and always use their words
But when the words run out, punches fly along with birds

I'm the last of a long dying breed
I watch the rain fall like TV
I hope it comes down all year 'round

Watch me go when they wind me up
Running amok in a pick-up truck
Drinking about anything that I can pick up on the road eastbound
'Cause I'm the last of a dying breed
'Cause I'm the last of a dying breed
