Music and Lyrics by Owen Temple and Jamie Lin Wilson
Hands like granite rock
Door you can’t unlock
Keeps ticking like a windup clock
Won’t ever stop
Comes in like an earthquake
Bends but never breaks
Look you in the eyes handshake
That’s all it takes
Plays cards close to the vest
Hard on all the rest
He don’t care for second best
Not impressed
If you can
Show me the hand
You were dealt along the way
Heartbreak, pain, joy, John Wayne cowboy
Come to save the day
Narrow eyes in the morning sun
Count the days one by one
Never finish ’til it’s done
Are you, son?
If you can show me the hand
You were dealt along the way
Heart break pain joy John Wayne cowboy
Come to save the day
If you can show me the hand
You were dealt along the way
Heartbreak, pain, joy, John Wayne cowboy
Come to save the day, hey
Heartbreak, pain, joy, John Wayne cowboy
Come to save the day
Heartbreak, pain, joy, John Wayne cowboy
Come to save the day
If you can show me the hand
You were dealt along the way
If you can show me the hand
You were dealt along the way
Heartbreak, pain, joy, John Wayne cowboy
Come to save the day, hey
