While I was in Santa Fe N.M. this last summer, I met a street musician in the plaza and spent an
afternoon trading stories with him over a couple of beers. I posted a link to an interview I found.
This song is the end result of that meeting…

The Last Real Man
He’s the man on a horse
A silhouette against the sky
Riding on into the western sun
Yes he sure can sing
Who does this kind of thing
Even when they say it can’t be done
American nomad
Guitar on his back
Riding all the way across this land
Detroit to Santa Fe
Backroads and lost highways
I just met the last real man
He sang original cowboy songs
So it was hard to sing along
A cattle dog lay there by his side
They threw dollars in his pail
He could surely tell a tale
He was wild as the west one of a kind
American nomad
Guitar on his back
Riding all the way across this land
Detroit to Santa Fe
Backroads and lost highways
I just met the last real man
My given name’s John Wayne
Don’t want no fortune or fame
I just want to do what I do
When it stops being fun
I’ll tell myself I’m done
One last song and then I’m Through
American nomad
Guitar on his back
Riding all the way across this land
Detroit to Santa Fe
Backroads and lost highways
I just met the last real man
