John Cougar, John Deere, John 3:16 (feat. Shane Mc Anally)

I'm a 45 spinnin' on an old Victrola

I'm a two-strike swinger, I'm a Pepsi Cola

I'm a blue-jean quarterback sayin', "I love you" to the prom queen

In a Chevy

I'm John Wayne, Superman, California

I'm a Kris Kristofferson Sunday mornin'

I'm a mama and daddy singin' along to Don McLean

At the levee

I'm a child of a backseat freedom

Baptized by rock 'n' roll

Marilyn Monroe and the Garden of Eden

Never grow up, never grow old

Just another rebel in the great wide open

On a boulevard of broken dreams

And I learned everything I needed to know

From John Cougar, John Deere, John 3:16

I'm Mark Twain on the Mississippi

I'm Hemingway with a shot of whiskey

I'm a TV dinner on a tray tryna figure out

The Wheel of Fortune

I'm a Texaco star, I'm a Gibson guitar

Still a teenage kid tryna go too far

I'm a jukebox waitin' in a neon bar

For a quarter

I'm a child of a backseat freedom

Baptized by rock 'n' roll

Marilyn Monroe and the Garden of Eden

Never grow up, never grow old

Just another rebel in the great wide open

On a boulevard of broken dreams

And I learned everything I needed to know

From John Cougar, John Deere, John 3:16

I spent a lot of years runnin' from Jesus

Lookin' for another way to save my soul

The longer I live, the more I believe it

There's only one way home

I'm a child of a backseat freedom

Baptized by rock 'n' roll

Marilyn Monroe and the Garden of Eden

Never grow up, never grow old

Just another rebel in the great wide open

On a boulevard of broken dreams

And I learned everything I needed to know
