Did you know when you were holdin' me
By that fire in Jackson Hole
That you were gonna let me go
And did you know when...
Down in the Delta there's a tattoo parlor
With a black and white picture hangin' on the wall
Oh, oh of a stripper
The...
I worked a little while in a little town in Colorado
But the winters were just a little bit too long
So I decided California...
I don't know what brought us here
But I know there's no easy way out
One thing is perfectly clear
I can't live alone in...
I've been starin' all day at the same computer screen
'Round here I'm treated like I'm just some damn machine
I punch in, I...
She wakes up some days life is cruel
She's on a chain gang sittin' in a typing pool
And her brain feels all dragged down...
I been down about as low as anyone can get
The whole world was closin' in
Couldn't find a friend
No one else could help...
Her little blond hair's blowin', she's swingin' while her daddy's mowin'
The grass, and the dog needs a bath
But he's chasing...
Why does the color of my coffee match your eyes
Why do I see you when a stranger passes by
I swear I hear you in the whisper of...
He promised her a new and better life, out in Arizona
Underneath the blue never ending sky, swore that he was gonna
Get things...

She's never pulled anyone from a burning building
She's never rocked Central Park to a half a million fans, screaming out her name
She's never hit a shot to win the game
She's never left her footprints on the moon
She's never made a solo hot air balloon ride, around the world,
No, she's just your everyday average girl (but)
She's somebody's hero
A hero to her baby with a skinned up knee
A little kiss is all she needs
The keeper of the cheerios
The voice that brings Snow White to life
Bedtime stories every night
And that smile lets her know
She's somebody's hero
She didn't get a check every week like a nine-to fiver
But she's been a waiter, and a cook and a taxi driver
For twenty years, there at home, until the day her girl was grown
Giving all her love to her was her life's ambition
But now her baby's movin' on, and she'll soon be missin' her
But not today, those are tears of joy runnin' down her face
She's somebody's hero
A hero to her daughter in her wedding dress
She gave her wings to leave the nest
It hurts to let her baby go down the aisle she walks right by
Looks back into her mother's eyes
And that smile lets her know
She's somebody's hero
Thirty years have flown right past
Her daughters' starin' at all the photographs
Of her mother, and she wishes she could be like that
Oh, but she already is
She's somebody's hero
A hero to her mother in a rockin' chair
She runs a brush through her silver hair
The envy of the nursing home
She drops by every afternoon
Feeds her mama with a spoon
And that smile lets her know
Her mother's smile lets her know
She's somebody's hero
