John Wayne Lyrics by Zuma II

Zuma II

1987

Saw a big airplane fall from the sky
Heard the pope was shot and they don't know why
Every night there's trouble on the news
What's a man like me supposed to do
Look it's a bird, sure ain't Superman
Don't hold your breath, no savior coming
John Wayne wouldn't let the bad guys beat'im
Sure do wish we had a real John Wayne
Where are the heroes when you really need'em
John Wayne come on back and make my day
California falls into the sea
And the Russians drop a bomb on me
Thеse are just a few of my favoritе dreams
And I always wake before the marines
Help we need help, but they never show up
Out of the blue, nothing but more blue
Where do we turn - we turn on the T.V
John Wayne comin' at ya six guns blazin'
Sure do wish we had a real John Wayne
Where are the heroes when you really need'em
John Wayne come on back and make my day
Help we need help, but they never show up
Out of the blue, nothing but more blue
Where do we turn - we turn on the T.V
John Wayne wouldn't let the bad guys beat'im
Sure do wish we had a real John Wayne
Where are the heroes when you really need'em
John Wayne come on back and make my day
John Wayne comin' at ya six guns blazin'
Sure do wish we had a real John Wayne
Where are the heroes when you really need'em
Sure do wish we had a real John Wayne
Sure do wish we had a real John Wayne
