The station's old, the pumps run slow
Earl still opens, keeps the glow
The coffee's black and burnt at closing time
Still the only light on Highway Nine

Last light, last light
Down at Texaco
Same old faces
Same old jokes 
There's nowhere left to go
Until Earl turns out the light
Last light at Texaco

Danny sits where his daddy sat
Same worn old corner stool, same faded cap
Talks about the old mill back in its day
When the whistle used to call three shifts away

Last light, last light
Down at Texaco
Same old faces
Same old jokes
There's nowhere left to go
Until Earl turns out the light
Last light at Texaco

The Dairy Queen closed, then the bank
Boarded-up windows along Main Street sank
The school bell has rung for the last time too
The playground's empty, grass pushes through

Last light, last light
Down at Texaco
Same old faces
Same old jokes
There's nowhere left to go
Until Earl turns out the light
Last light at Texaco

Maybe it's not the gas we're buying
Maybe we're just not done with goodbye
Nobody asks who's leaving next
We just sit here, order what's left

Last light, last light
Down at Texaco
Same old faces
Same old jokes
There's nowhere left to go
Until Earl turns out the light
Last light at Texaco
