Lyrics

(Pat Green) I met John Wayne and Jesus when I was just a kid They both had on their cowboy hats just like I'd pictured them I stood up at the front of the class waving my American flag I said the pledge, sang amber waves of grain Chorus I sing all the song of America Danced in the rain in Lafayette I'm still hanging out with John Wayne and Jesus And I know that is as good as life can get I had big time when I was down in Houston I fell in love and moved out 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 on MTV Me I'm right down here in Texas Cause I know that's where I was always meant to be Chorus
