It all started in a place long ago
And how we got to where we are I don't know
We were kids with songs in our hearts
As we tripped along through life's false starts
Now we're not so young anymore
Now we've forgotten why and what for
Who will be the last man standing
On this shaky ground
Who will be the last man standing
The last man standing around
We burned through our years
And burned through our lives
Burned through husbands
And burned our through wives
We could not see just how good it was
Tried to get high enough to feel the buzz
Now we're caught inside the hands of fate
And frankly it don't feel none too great
It all started in a place long ago
And how we got to where we are I don't know
Took it on the chin and in our guts
Let them run us down and kick our butts
But we held our proud heads up so high
And we yelled at them fie, fie, fie
