Lyrics

Verse 1

Nellie Cashman fed the miners at the Russ House door
Angel of Tombstone, never turned away the poor
Fly snapped his pictures by the corral that day
Smoke in the alley, and the legends rode away
Now we serve the coffee and we pour the beer
Same kind of spirit keeps us standing here

Chorus

We're the last ones standing when the dust clears out
Loud and proud, ain't no doubt
Rough hands, big hearts, and a stubborn streak
Tombstone don't do weak
No, Tombstone don't do weak
We're the last ones standing

Verse 2

Morgan fell at the billiard hall in eighty-two
Wyatt rode for vengeance, and the town rode through
Hundred years of ghost tales and a thousand more to tell
Every night on Allen Street, we raise a little hell
Ranchers in from Sonoita, bikers in from Benson way
Find a stool, you're family, you're welcome here to stay
We're the last ones standing

Chorus

We're the last ones standing when the dust clears out
Loud and proud, ain't no doubt
Rough hands, big hearts, and a stubborn streak
Tombstone don't do weak
No, Tombstone don't do weak
We're the last ones standing

Instrumental Guitar Solo

Bridge

Wind can blow and the sun can burn
Every hard-luck year, we learn
Same old stars over the same old street
Still Tombstone, still can't be beat

Final Chorus

We're the last ones standing when the dust clears out
Loud and proud, ain't no doubt
Rough hands, big hearts, and a stubborn streak
Tombstone don't do weak
No, Tombstone don't do weak
We're the last ones standing
We're the last ones standing
