I'm the last of the babies of the World War 2

 World War 2 and that's the one we didn't lose

DiMaggio's baseball and Marilyn's legs

    A                                         A
I remember when the great train, they used to run on coal
D                                D
 And they would run on coal and I would be ready to go, me too
A                     A
Old white shirt and a tired overall

I remember Louisiana in a hot steamy night
D                             D
 Hot steamy night and she was holding me tight
   A                    A
An old red Chevy with a big back seat
  D                    D
I had me some two tall shoes off my feet

      A                      A
I'm a world war baby holding mama's hand
D                       D
 Mama's hand and how my daddy knew the land
A                        A
 Truck bearin' music and poverty and wealth
D                      D
 I got some great big scars on myself


🤠 Chorus:
            D           A       A

 Last good hand and I'm a gambling man
A                         A
All them bombs and people wakin' on that boom
D                        D
Sometimes I reckon I got here too soon
