John Wayne
Something 'bout the way you're laying there
With nothing but the morning light on
Looking like the reason for every money line in a Conway song
You got me contemplating, thinking on what life would be like without you in it
And how it'd sure be something sho' 'nuff
But something sure as hell'd be missing
It'd be like the Marlboro man with nothing to smoke
Like ol' Cheyenne without a rodeo
A Friday honky tonk without a drop to drink
That'd be like Buck without that Bakersfield sound
Like the Rio Grande without a border town
If I didn't have you nothing'd be same
Like the Wild Wild West without John Wayne
Like a boat up a creek without a paddle
No doubt, yeah, that'd be me
Like a movie with no ending
A Telecaster bending without strings
And all I'm trying to say is, I really ain't nothing baby without you
Like a bar without a stool, like an outlaw without boots
It'd be like the Marlboro man with nothing to smoke
Like ol' Cheyenne without a rodeo
A Friday honky tonk without a drop to drink
That'd be like Buck without that Bakersfield sound
Like the Rio Grande without a border town
If I didn't have you nothing'd be same
Like the Wild Wild West without John Wayne
Yeah, without John Wayne
It'd be like the silver screen in Hollywood
That's never seen the Duke
It'd be like the bad guys always win
And heroes always lose
It'd be like the Marlboro man with nothing to smoke
Like ol' Cheyenne without a rodeo
A Friday honky tonk without a drop to drink
That'd be like Buck without that Bakersfield sound
Like the Rio Grande without a border town
If I didn't have you nothing'd be same
Like the Wild Wild West without John Wayne
Hmm
Without John Wayne
With nothing but the morning light on
Looking like the reason for every money line in a Conway song
You got me contemplating, thinking on what life would be like without you in it
And how it'd sure be something sho' 'nuff
But something sure as hell'd be missing
It'd be like the Marlboro man with nothing to smoke
Like ol' Cheyenne without a rodeo
A Friday honky tonk without a drop to drink
That'd be like Buck without that Bakersfield sound
Like the Rio Grande without a border town
If I didn't have you nothing'd be same
Like the Wild Wild West without John Wayne
Like a boat up a creek without a paddle
No doubt, yeah, that'd be me
Like a movie with no ending
A Telecaster bending without strings
And all I'm trying to say is, I really ain't nothing baby without you
Like a bar without a stool, like an outlaw without boots
It'd be like the Marlboro man with nothing to smoke
Like ol' Cheyenne without a rodeo
A Friday honky tonk without a drop to drink
That'd be like Buck without that Bakersfield sound
Like the Rio Grande without a border town
If I didn't have you nothing'd be same
Like the Wild Wild West without John Wayne
Yeah, without John Wayne
It'd be like the silver screen in Hollywood
That's never seen the Duke
It'd be like the bad guys always win
And heroes always lose
It'd be like the Marlboro man with nothing to smoke
Like ol' Cheyenne without a rodeo
A Friday honky tonk without a drop to drink
That'd be like Buck without that Bakersfield sound
Like the Rio Grande without a border town
If I didn't have you nothing'd be same
Like the Wild Wild West without John Wayne
Hmm
Without John Wayne
