I’m a Hero Songtext
von Keb’ Mo’

I know I′m just a workin' man
Sometimes I need a helpin′hand
It's alright

They hardly ever notice me
They never raise my salary
It's alright

Maybe I don′t seem so bright
And my future′s lookin' dim
And I′m runnin'in a rat race
That I′m never gonna win

I may not be a soldier, in the army
And I don't have money, fortune or fame
And there′s nobody out there, strokin' my ego
But when it comes to my woman
I'm a hero

Don′t know technology
I′m not as smart as I wanna be
It's alright


But I know the recipe
And the terminology
For love
Sure enough

Maybe she′d be better off
With an educated man
But she's my inspiration
And I′m doin'the best I can

I may not be a soldier, in the army
And I don′t have money, fortune or fame
And there's nobody out there, strokin' my ego
But when it comes to my woman
I′m a hero

My baby loves me
And she knows what I need
And when she holds me
I feel like a king
And if I ever lose her
Oh Lord what would I do?
I might go crazy


I may not be a soldier, in the army
And I don′t have money, fortune or fame
And there's nobody out there, strokin′ my ego
But when it comes to my woman
I may not be a soldier, in the army
And I don't have money, fortune or fame
And there′s nobody out there, strokin' my ego
But when it comes to my woman
I′m a hero
I'm a hero

She thinks I'm alright, oh Lord
She believes I′m a hero
