[00:14.31] Your mother died night you were born
[00:19.60] Her name you never knew
[00:23.08] Look away, Look away
[00:26.51] Nothing to lose
[00:30.74] Left East Tennessee at fourteen
[00:34.84] Wandered to the West
[00:38.33] Look away, Look away
[00:41.66] Born into death
[00:45.80] You fought the sailors in New Orleans
[00:52.58] You worked the flatboats and walked the streets
[01:01.04] Hit Nacogdoches in '49
[01:08.62] And there we met for the very first time
[02:42.87][01:16.04] Kid don't you know me?
[02:46.11][01:20.76] We are the last of the true
[02:49.84][01:24.29] Drink up! Drink up!
[02:53.97][01:29.08] Drink up! Drink up!
[02:58.35][01:33.37] Cause tonight your soul's required of you
[01:40.48] Signed on with a stone mad captain
[01:44.82] Rode on Mexico
[01:48.02] Look away, Look away
[01:51.65] War behold
[01:56.04] Jailed with killers one and all
[01:59.82] But we were killers free
[02:03.41] Look away, Look away
[02:06.85] Look to me
[02:11.09] You saw the lancers 'mid heathen hordes
[02:18.02] Bloodstained veils and costumes of war
[02:26.08] Hell ain't half full boy hear me
[02:33.35] War is the game and the god we seek
[03:30.03] We set out as men of reason
[03:33.68] Armed with Navy Colts
[03:37.32] Look away, Look away
[03:41.06] Work paid in gold
[03:44.40] But you stood witness to yourself
[03:48.99] Our trial you did betray
[03:52.53] Look away, Look away
[03:56.32] To judgment day
[04:00.55] We killed in the desert we killed in the streets
[04:07.34] We chose what shall and shall not be
[04:15.28] We stood with pistols, fought back to back
[04:23.27] Now you've stood your ground but what ground is that?
[04:55.33][04:31.18] Kid don't you know me?
[04:57.91][04:36.45] We are the last of the true
[05:02.82][04:39.25] Drink up! Drink up!
[05:06.35][04:42.14] Drink up! Drink up!
[05:10.88][04:46.71] Cause tonight your soul's required of you
