When the stranger came to town
All the people watched with wonder
In their tattered clothes
Gathered ’round and raised their eyes up from the dirt
And the stranger said to them
I have been upon the mountain
I have witnessed forces like cannons
That can ram you to the ground
Stand up on your feet
‘Cause your life is short as hell
You could be dead tomorrow
Today may be you’re last chance
To believe in yourself
Your last chance to yell
Your last chance
To be good to yourself
Your last chance
To drink from life’s well
In the crowd a voice was heard
Should you get them before
They get you?
Should we strike the first blow?
He said
No No No you don’t understand
The enemy is in your heart
Self respect robbed by self content
Look across the country
All the people with their dreams
Dead in their hearts
Stand up on your feet
‘Cause your life is short as hell
You could be dead tomorrow
Today may be you’re last chance
To believe in yourself
Your last chance to yell
Your last chance
To be good to yourself
Your last chance
To drink from life’s well
And drink from the well
Oh yeah
It could be you’re last chance
To believe in yourself
Your last chance to yell
Your last chance
To be good to yourself
Your last chance
To drink from life’s well
Drink from the well
Oh yeah
Drink from the well….
