"John Wayne" recounts the tale of a tragic love story from the third person. The speaker watches helplessly as he sees his past self fall in love with the girl who will soon break his heart. He remembers how his fearlessness and recklessness like John Wayne led to him being hurt by someone who didn’t love him as deeply as he loved.
