Unsung Hero Songtext
von Josh Turner

He joined the Army in ′42
Fightin' for his country
And me and you
Didn′t talk about his medals
Or what he'd seen
Was a man of few words
About everything
He wasn't in the paper or on tv
Hollywood never called
All he did for us we may never know
He′s an unsung hero
He′s an unsung hero

Know their name
And you probably never will
They didn't do what they
Did for praise or fame
And he′s an unsung hero
He's an unsung hero


He got a letter from the president
Lettin′ him know how much it meant
To all the men and women
Of the USA
For answerin' the call and for
The price he paid
He put the letter in a dresser drawer
It never saw the light of day
All he hid from us we may never know
He′s an unsung hero
He's an unsung hero

People like that you don't
Know their name
And you probably never will
They didn′t do what they
Did for praise or fame
He′s an unsung hero
He's an unsung hero

He was a hard workin′
Man and he loved his wife
Did everything he could to
Give her a good life
Active in his church and
His garden too
Never had a lot of money
But he made it through
I tip my hat to all the men like that
Who've ever fought to keep us free
He was


He′s an unsung hero
He's an unsung hero
He′s an unsung hero
He's an unsung hero
