Heroes

You won't see 'em on the TV or signin' autographs Unless they're at the bank signin' a make-ends-meet paycheck Their last name might not mean a lot outside these county lines Well, they don't need attention, they're too busy savin' lives Between the single moms who work two jobs To feed the kids and pay the rent The farmers who still turn a crop when all the rain decides to quit The ones that risk their lives and don't think twice to lay it down There's some real-life heroes in this town There's that teacher teachin' ninth grade who won't let that one kid quit He'll come back and thank her, down the road, just like I did There's a boy without a daddy, with college football speed That high school coach was all he had, now everyone believes Between the single moms who work two jobs To feed the kids and pay the rent The farmers who still turn a crop when all the rain decides to quit The ones that risk their lives and don't think twice to lay it down There's some real-life heroes in this town (Oh-oh, oh-oh) Yeah, I watch my kids look up at me like I can fly through air Lord knows I'm no Superman, just hope I fall somewhere Between the single moms that work two jobs To feed the kids and pay the rent The farmers who still turn a crop when all the rain decides to quit The ones that risk their lives and don't think twice to lay it down There's some real-life heroes in this town Real-life heroes in this town You won't see 'em on the TV or signin' autographs
