American Murder Song - The Killing Place

The Last Americans (Room 7:09)

There's a woman in a tent
Half a day's walk from camp
All the children have gone
And her pillow is damp
She whispers to a man
Lying frail by her side
"We're the last Americans
We're the last Americans"

"If it's one hundred years, love
I'll see you again
We're the last Americans
If it's one hundred years, love
I'll see you again
We're the last Americans"

Hah-hah-hAmericans!
Hah-hah-hAmericans!
We're the last Americans!
Hah-hah-hAmericans!

But out in the snow
The Devil does call
He whispers, "It's time"
And breaks through the wall
He asks for her hand
She grabs for a knife
"We're the last Americans
We're the last Americans"

"If it's one hundred years, love
I'll see you again
We're the last Americans
If it's one hundred years, love
I'll see you again
We're the last Americans"

Hah-hah-hAmericans!
Hah-hah-hAmericans!
We're the last Americans!
Hah-hah-hAmericans!
Hah-hah-hAmericans!
Hah-hah-hAmericans!
We're the last Americans!
Hah-hah-hAmericans!

They dance in a waltz
But his feet make no sound
The knife falls away
And she can't touch the ground
As they draw face to face
She spits out a breath
"We're the last Americans
We're the last Americans"

"If it's one hundred years, love
I'll see you again
We're the last Americans
If it's one hundred years, love
I'll see you again
We're the last Americans"

Hah-hah-hAmericans!
Hah-hah-hAmericans!
We're the last Americans!
Hah-hah-hAmericans!
Hah-hah-hAmericans!
Hah-hah-hAmericans!
We're the last Americans!
Hah-hah-hAmericans!
Hah-hah-hAmericans!
Hah-hah-hAmericans!
We're the last Americans!
Hah-hah-hAmericans!
Hah-hah-hAmericans!
Hah-hah-hAmericans!
We're the last Americans!
Hah-hah-hAmericans!
