Oh you get me ready in your 56 Chevy   Why don't we go sit down in the shade?   Take shelter on my front porch   The dandy lion sun scorching   Like a glass of cold lemonade?   I will do laundry if you pay all the bills      Where is my John Wayne?   Where is my prairie son?   Where is my happy ending?   Where have all the Cowboys gone?      Why don't you stay the evening   Kick back and watch the TV   And I'll fix a little somethin' to eat?   Oh I know your back hurts from working on the tractor   How do you take your coffee my sweet?   I will raise the children if you pay all the bills?      Where is my John Wayne?   Where is my prairie son?   Where is my happy ending?   Where have all the Cowboys gone?      I am wearing my new dress tonight   But you don't even notice me   Say our goodbyes   Say our goodbyes   Say our goodbyes      We finally sold the Chevy   When we had another baby   And you took that job in Tennessee   You made friends at the farm   And you joined them at the bar   Almost every single day of the week   I will wash the dishes while you go have a beer      Where is my John Wayne?   Where is my prairie son?   Where is my happy ending?   Where have all the Cowboys gone?   Where is my Marlboro Man?   Where is my shiny gun?   Where is my lonely ranger?   Where have all the cowboys gone?      Yippee aw, yippee yea   Yippee aw, yippee yea   Yippee aw, yippee yea
