  1. John Wayne Cowboy
WRITTEN BY: OWEN TEMPLE & JAMIE LIN WILSON

 

Hands like granite rock
Door you can’t unlock
Keeps ticking like a wind-up 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 finished till it’s done
Are you son?

If you can, show me the hand you were dealt along the way
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
Heartbreak, pain, joy, John Wayne cowboy
Come to save the day
Hey, hey
