The Last Sunset lyrics

D. Vaughn, M. Clayton, B. St.James)

Johnny too bad now, don`tcha know
As he pushed that old Chevy down to Mexico
Thought he`d give Vera Cruz a whirl
Picking up the language from the local girls
People say this world sure can chew you up
But he lived by the dice trusting his good luck - alright

So he found himself a home and he got a girl
And he didn`t want for nothing in this whole world
Swore he`d give up running if they`d let him be
Living was simple but it sure was free
Hey there, darling what`s your hurry now?
Come sit with me and watch the sun go down

Chorus:
And you can see him smile when the day is done
`Cause the last sunset is the prettiest one
The last sunset is the prettiest one

Wasn`t long before the sirens came
From miles away like they were calling his name
Found a picture that he`d never seen, taken at the last bank in Abilene

So he says to his wife, `My running days are done`
And he sits on his porch and he lets them come

(chorus repeats 2x)
