John Wayne's Dream Lyrics


Big Country John Wayne's Dream


I could head into the sunset
With my best girl by my side
I could pull her up beside me
And together we would ride

Hey ma, hey pa
Look at me standing tall
Brother, sister
Look at them bad guys fall

I'm walking and talking real slow
Out where the tumbleweeds blow
Hey ma, hey pa
Let those wagons roll

I played poker with a doctor
Stand straight up and called him a cheat
Then I walked those twenty paces
Gunned him right down in the street

Hey ma, hey pa
Look at me standing tall
Brother, sister
Look at them bad guys fall

I'm walking and talking real slow
Out where the tumbleweeds blow
Hey ma, hey pa
Let those wagons roll

Don't wake me up
I'm dreaming John Wayne's dream
Under a sky so big on the prairie green
Please leave my here in John Wayne's dream

I'd ride shotgun on a stagecoach
Keep those bandits from my girl
I would pull her round the waist, man
Run my rough hands through her curls

I said hey ma, hey pa
Look at me standing tall
Brother, sister
Look at them bad guys fall

I'm walking and talking real slow
Out where the tumbleweeds blow
Hey ma, hey pa
Let those wagons roll

Don't wake me up
I'm dreaming John Wayne's dream
Under a sky so big on the prairie green
Please leave my here in John Wayne's dream

Hey ma, hey pa
Look at me standing tall
Brother, sister
Look at them bad guys fall

I'm walking and talking real slow
Out where the tumbleweeds blow
Hey ma, hey pa
Let those wagons roll
