Intro I'm the last leaf on the tree The autumn took the rest But it won't take me I'm the last leaf on the tree Instrumental verse 1 When the autumn wind blows They've already gone They flutter to the ground Cause they can't hang on And there's nothing in the world That I ain't seen I greet all the new ones that are coming in green And I'm the last leaf on the tree The autumn took the rest But it won't take me I'm the last leaf on the tree Instrumental verse 2 Well they say I got staying power Here on the tree But I've been here since Eisenhower And I've outlived even he I'm the last leaf on the tree The autumn took the rest But it won't take me I'm the last leaf on the tree Instrumental verse 3 Well I fight off the snow And I fight off the hail Nothing makes me go I'm like some vestigial tail And I'll be here through eternity If you want to know how long If they cut down this tree I'll show up in a song And I'm the last leaf on the tree The autumn took the rest But it won't take me I'm the last leaf I'm the last leaf I'm the last leaf on the tree Outro
