The Last Pharaoh - Dave Rawlings Machine

I’m looking for the last, the last pharaoh

When night falls on the land

I’m looking for the last, the last pharaoh

I’m gonna lay him down if I can

I thought I heard that big, that big Kate Adams

I thought I heard a whistle blow

I thought I heard that big, that big Kate Adams

Puffing down to Mexico

I’m looking for the last, the last pharaoh

When night falls on the land

I’m looking for the last, the last pharaoh

I’m gonna lay him down if I can

I don’t need a chicken, a chicken in the pot

Or a woman in my own back yard

I don’t need a chicken, chicken, chicken in the pot

The way I need the next high card

I’m looking for the last, the last pharaoh

When night falls on the land

I’m looking for the last, the last pharaoh

And I’m gonna lay him down if I can

Yes I am

Lady luck makes the kings, the Natchez kings

The kings of Natchez and below

She makes the kings of Natchez and below

And lady luck’s with me, I know

So I’m looking for the last, the last pharaoh

When night falls on the land

I’m looking for the last, the last pharaoh

And I’m gonna lay him down yes I am
