John Wayne- Was a True Western Hero
The wind blew snow over the plains that winter,
Comancheros log fires lit The Trail Beyond
'Neath Arizona Skies, came The Dawn Rider
he was six-feet four, and sat Tall in the Saddle
Known from El Dorado, to the Red River
along the Lawless Frontier,North to Alaska
this Hondo of Blue Steel, was The Shootist
he was The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance!
His Overland Stage Raiders, Riders of Destiny
The Horse Soldiers, to Fort Apache, they did ride
The Searchers, The Cowboys, The Undefeated
The Star Packer, came West of the Divide
The blew snow over the plains that winter
from the Rio Grande, Rio Lobo, Rio Bravo
we shall never forget the way he stopped the Stagecoach
he had True Grit, from Dakota, to The Alamo
John Wayne was a true western hero,
the greatest living legend ever seen
John Wayne was a true western hero,
John Wayne was the true American dream.
