The Pallbearers (We’ll be the Last Ones to Let You Down)

[Intro]
We're the Pine Box Boys and we wanna thank you folks for listening. We also wanna thank our sponsors, Hollins & Hollins Mortuary Services. As they tell you: "We'll be the last ones to let you down."

[Verse 1]
It's an honor for me and the rest of the boys
We'll put this one down as a bittersweet joy
We'll take it like men, but we're humbled and small
That you would entrust us to bear your pall

[Chorus]
We'll be the last ones
We'll be the last ones
We'll be the last ones to let you down
We'll be the last ones
We'll be the last ones
We'll be the last ones to let you down

[Verse 2]
We'll measure our steps to a slow gospel song
It ain't that you're heavy - it's just that you're gone
And we'll take it like men, like we know that we should
'cause if we couldn't save you, nobody could

[Chorus]
We'll be the last ones
We'll be the last ones
We'll be the last ones to let you down
We'll be the last ones
We'll be the last ones
We'll be the last ones to let you down

[Verse 3]
Forgive me if my singing is getting you down
We meant to be solemn and tighten our frowns
Our hearts may be heavy, as heavy as stone
But it won't hurt to sing as we bear your corpse home

[Chorus]
We'll be the last ones
We'll be the last ones
We'll be the last ones to let you down
We'll be the last ones
We'll be the last ones
We'll be the last ones to let you down
