Dusty Rhodes, a Great American Dream
Last surviving hero
Meanest man I’ve ever seen
Dusty Rhodes, his legend will live on
Funky rap, a fur skin cap
The Lone Star’s favorite son
Listen to my story about a man like you and me
Walking tall and fighting proud
A man of decency
Lightning flashed
The rain poured down
A dreadful Texas storm
And as the thunder clapped once more, Dusty Rhodes was born
Dusty Rhodes, a Great American Dream
Last surviving hero
Meanest man I’ve ever seen
Dusty Rhodes, his legend will live on
Funky rap, a fur skin cap
The Lone Star’s favorite son
Some folks dream of riches and others would be king
Dusty’s only goal in life was wrestling in that ring
So he took them one by one from near and far away
And you can hear the echo of his movement when they say
Dusty Rhodes, a Great American Dream
Last surviving hero
Meanest man I’ve ever seen
Dusty Rhodes, his legend will live on
Funky rap, a fur skin cap
The Lone Star’s favorite son
Dusty Rhodes, The American Dream
Can you dig what I’m sayin’?
Just a little bully from Austin, Texas
And now I move people, baby
Now I move people!
And people love me ‘cause I move 'em
And I never lie to 'em
And when I say I’m gonna whip somebody’s can
When I say I’m gonna walk tall
Then I tell ya for damn sure I’m walkin’ tall
And from the windy city a rich man did appear
He put a bounty on his head, they came from far and near
And when the dust had settled, The Dream stood proud and tall
And from the chanting movement came the great American call
Dusty Rhodes, a Great American Dream
Last surviving hero
Meanest man I’ve ever seen
Dusty Rhodes, his legend will live on
Funky rap, a fur skin cap
The Lone Star’s favorite son
Dusty Rhodes, The American Dream!
Wrestling’s my game
Pain is what it’s all about
And the thing that makes me so good is I know how good I am
And the thing that makes me so great is the people know how good I am
I’m doing it for everybody - the brown, the black, the white, the green, and the yellow
I’m gonna be there when you fall
When you’re eating your TV dinners wanting to be somebody
Then turn on the tube - I’m gonna make ya be somebody
When you want to live
When you want to walk
When you want to talk
When you want to cuss your foreman out
When you want to tell your old lady where to go
Then turn on the set, and I’m gonna help you, baby, 'cause Dusty Rhodes is the dream - The American Dream
