Lonewolf at Last Call

Verse 1

Damn if it ain't the lonewolf

Slidin' through that barroom door tonight

They look him up and down

This ole boy here ain't messin' around

I ordered my usual

Sweet tea and a shot of Jack

Tip the bartender kindly

Tip my hat to the group starin' back

Pre-Chorus

They see the scuffed-up boots

They see the calloused hands

Don't know the miles I've walked

To stand on my own land

Chorus

I'm a ghost at last call

A shadow in the smoke

I don't need nobody's pity

Just a stool and a joke

Been the one they whispered 'bout

Since I was seventeen

Damn if it ain't the lonewolf

And I like what I've seen

Post-Chorus

(Ooh-ooh)

(Sweet tea and a shot)

(Ooh-ooh)

(Lonewolf holdin' strong)

Verse 2

Fiddle cries across the room

Banjo keeps the rhythm low and true

That group still fixin' stares

Like they got somethin' left to prove

I raise my glass to nobody

Just the ceiling and the moon

Ain't lookin' for a fight

But brother I ain't movin' soon

Pre-Chorus

They see the worn-out jeans

They see the silver grayin' hair

Don't know the storms I've rode

Or the scars I've learned to wear

Chorus

I'm a ghost at last call

A shadow in the smoke

I don't need nobody's pity

Just a stool and a joke

Been the one they whispered 'bout

Since I was seventeen

Damn if it ain't the lonewolf

And I like what I've seen

Bridge

Maybe they think I'm lonesome

Maybe they think I'm broke

But lonely ain't the same thing

As a man who knows his own oak

Final Chorus

I'm a ghost at last call

A shadow in the smoke

I don't need nobody's pity

Just a stool and a joke

Been the one they whispered 'bout

Since I was seventeen

Damn if it ain't the lonewolf

And I like what I've seen

Outro

Sweet tea and a shot

Tip my hat and go

Yeah I like what I've seen
