John Wayne and Jesus Lyrics

Song Text:

I met John Wayne and Jesus when I was just a kid,
they both had on their cowboy hats just like I pictured them,
I stood up at the front of the class waving my American flag,
saying the pledge sang amber waves of grain.

Chorus

I sing all the songs of America, Danced in the rain of Lafayette,
I'm still hanging out with John Wayne and Jesus,
and I know that is as good as life can get.

I had a big time when I was down in Houston,
I fell in love and moved to New Orleans, well she said
so long" now I'm here all alone,
she's still got a little bitty piece of me.

Chorus

Well John Wayne and Jesus moved out to Hollywood,
workin' behind the scenes of MTV,
me I'm still right down here in Texas,
I know that's where I was always meant to be.

Chorus
