about

One of Bat's Showcase masterpieces for guitar. This one is performed on the 12-string, and in many shows is the show-stopping closing song.
Featuring fearless acrobatic guitar work, and a true life biographic lyric, this piece tells the story of the evolution of a guitar wizard.

lyrics

Last Stand in Texas Bat Bennett

Time has come, fight or die- I don’t really care
A lifetime of taking the easy roads never got me there
So this is it, the big showdown and it’s time to draw
And we’ll see if I’m still made of steel
Not a scared broke down outlaw

I got one last chance down Texas that’s where I gotta go
I may boom or bust, or bite the dust
There’s only one way I’ll ever know
I’ll put it right in this one last fight, then throw down my guns
One last stand in Texas—then I’m done

On the highways and the back roads-I’ve run everyplace I could
And hid out in New Mexico, but didn’t do no good
All I got was overlooked, and mad under my skin
So I’m looking for a Badge of Gold, not a rusty star of Tin

You know I wasn’t born here
But this is surely where I’ll die
Bury me under a rolling thunder
And lightning Texas Sky
(In my Pancho)

Last Stand in Texas
Bye Bye- So long
Going Home

Amazing.
Phenomenal. Unbelievable. These are the adjectives most commonly used to describe the Singer/Guitarist from Flower Mound, whether they are talking about his voice, or his guitar playing. Now in his fifth year as a Solo Performer on the National stage, Bat leaves quite an impression wherever he plays.
Amazing guitar playing, wonderful storytelling, absolutely delightful.
