Verse 1
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)
Chorus
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, oh oh, oh oh, She's somebody's hero
Verse 2
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
Chorus
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, oh oh, oh oh, She's somebody's hero
Bridge
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
Chorus
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, oh oh, oh oh
Her mother's smile lets her know, oh oh, oh oh, She's somebody's hero
