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
