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
