Daddy was a cowboy, hard as a rock
Momma, she was quiet as a prayer
Daddy'd always tell me, son you gotta be tough
Momma'd kiss my cheek and say play fair
I did my best to make 'em proud of me
But it's never been an easy place to be

Somewhere between Jesus and John Wayne
A cowboy and a saint, crossing the open range
I try to be more like you Lord, but most days I know I ain't!
I'm somewhere between Jesus and John Wayne

Momma's love was tender
Daddy's love was strong
But both of them were there to help the weak
They taught me to stand up and fight for what is right
Showed me how to turn the other cheek
Now I see there's both of them in me
And maybe that's the best that I can ever hope to be!

Somewhere between Jesus and John Wayne
A cowboy and a saint, crossing the open range
I try to be more like you Lord, but most days I know I ain't!
I'm somewhere between Jesus and John Wayne

Yeah I'm somewhere between Jesus and John Wayne
A cowboy and a saint, crossing the open range
I try to be more like you Lord, but most days I know I ain't!
I'm somewhere between Jesus and John Wayne
Yeah I'm somewhere between Jesus and John Wayne
