John Cougar John Deere John 3:16

I’m a 45 spinning on an old Victrola
I’m a two strike swinger, I’m a Pepsi cola
I’m a blue jean quarterback saying «I love you» to the prom queen in a Chevy
I’m John Wayne, Superman, California
I’m a Kris Kristofferson Sunday morning
I’m a mom and daddy singing along to Don McLean at the Levy
And I’m a child of a backseat freedom, baptized by rock and roll
Marilyn Monroe and the Garden of Eden, never grow up, never grow old
Just another rebel in the great wide open on the boulevard of broken dreams
And I learned everything I needed to know from John Cougar, John Deere, John 3:
Hey, hey
Everything I needed
That’s right
