[Verse 1]
He could rope the wind
He could win the fight
Shoot you straight
And he knew wrong from right
He could saddle up, save the day
But he knew when he should ride away
[Chorus]
He was hard, but he was good to the core
They don’t make 'em like that anymore
He was rare as a July desert rain
He was my John Wayne
[Verse 2]
He could fall in love
He could be the fool
He could blow his top
But he could keep his cool
You could see his life on his face and hands
He was a woman's dream and a man’s man
[Chorus]
He was hard but he was good to the core
They don’t make 'em like that anymore
He was rare as a July desert rain
He was my John Wayne
[Verse 3]
Now to someone else he was just some guy
They didn’t shed a tear on the day he died
But tonight he walks down the streets of gold
A cowboy and a hero
[Chorus]
He was hard, but he was good to the core
They don’t make 'em like that anymore
He was rare as a July desert rain
He was my John Wayne
[Outro]
He was my john wayne
Mmmmmmmmm
