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 levee

Download Keith Urban – John Cougar, John Deere, John 3:16 MP3

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 3:16

Hey, hey

Everything I needed

That’s right

I’m Mark Twain on the Mississippi

I’m Hemingway with a shot of whiskey

I’m a TV dinner on a tray trying to figure out the Wheel of Fortune

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

I’m still a teenage kid trying to go too far

I’m a jukebox waiting in a neon bar for a quarter

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 3:16

I spent a lot of years running from believing, looking for another way to save my soul

The longer I live, the more I see it: there’s only one way home

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 3:16

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 3:16

Everything I needed

Everything I needed

That’s right
