We’re the last of the Mohegans
Here’s the reason why
Everybody else
Has passed us by
Once we thought that we
Would never die
In our sandbox years
Death didn’t apply

We’re the last of the Mohegans
You and I
But one day we too
Are gonna die
And others will be left
To question why
It’’s a universal law
None can deny

We’re the last of the Mohegans
Left here today
All of our friends
Have passed away
From various causes
So it’s hard to say
Who’s gonna be next
On what hour or day

We’re the last of the Mohegans
Left around
Most of our friends
Are at rest underground
But that’s God’s will
Sad as it may sound
And we hope that they’re all
Heaven bound
