Jerry Jeff Walker Well this might be the last song that I'm ever gonna write Cause the world seems more confused to me than any time in my life I know it all sounds crazy but, if it turns out to be true Than the last song I ever write, will be a song I wrote for you This might be the last song, I'm ever gonna sing I heard you're supposed to sing 'em all like you may never sing again The way I'm feeling now, it might just turn out to be true So the long song I ever sing will be the song I wrote for you Of all the friends and lovers in my life who have come and gone
You're the only one who's stood by me and never ever let me down So if I have one song to sing, and I have to sing it now How much I truly love you, would be what my song's about Well this might be the last song, that I'm ever gonna play So I want the words I love you to be the last words that I say Just man who sang about his love, a love so tried and true That the last song he ever sang, Was the one he wrote and played for you Well the last song I ever sing, was one I wrote and played for you
