He never stood a chance

Against another stacked deck

And now that he’s gone

There’s almost no one left

They’re all going away

I got a suit and a tie and some boots that I shine this time I wipe a tear from my eye as I say my goodbyes this time

Won’t be the last time that these boots get a shine this time So what can I say I never put them away this time

It’s such a heavy box

When it’s on your shoulders

You work with what you’ve got

And it’s a long way to the back of the hearse

I got a suit and a tie and some boots that I shine this time

I wipe a tear from my eye as I say my goodbyes this time Won’t be the last time that these boots get a shine this time So what can I say I never put them away this time
