[Verse 1]

Old steel factory

Casting shadows

What it meant to me

No one could know

Kept him away from me

And I was grateful

And to the bar across the street

Where he made last call

[Chorus]

Big man, beer can, back hand, my last stand

Late night, fist fight, black eye, who's right

Big man, beer can, back hand, my last stand

[Verse 2]

Minor tragedy

Family outing

Major catastrophe

Two week vacation

Long year seventeen

Birth day coming

July fifth, I can leave

No more running

[Chorus]

Big man, beer can, back hand, my last stand

Late night, fist fight, black eye, who's right

Big man, beer can, back hand, my last stand

[Verse 3]

Old steel factory

Casting shadows

What it meant to me

No one could know

[Chorus]

Late night, fist fight, black eye, who's right

Big man, beer can, back hand, my last stand

Late night, fist fight, black eye, who's right

Big man, beer can, back hand, my last stand

[Outro]

Ahhhh, come July

Please come July

Please come July

Ahhhh, come July
