《Hometown Hero》歌词

[00:00:01] Hometown Hero - Andy Shauf

[00:00:29] Hometown hero flexing his charm

[00:00:32] With a borderline joke

[00:00:34] To the guys at the bar

[00:00:36] And they slap their knees like

[00:00:38] They've not heard it before

[00:00:44] Thirty-five years old wearing his badge

[00:00:48] Nickname for life on the shoulder of his bomber

[00:00:53] That he wears as the coach

[00:00:55] Of the high school team

[00:01:00] He lights his cigarette

[00:01:04] And says "man these things

[00:01:06] Will kill me someday"

[00:01:09] Raises his glass and says "here's to hoping"

[00:01:28] Hometown hero flexing his arm

[00:01:32] With a five-yard pass to the end of the bar

[00:01:36] He says "i'll be right back

[00:01:38] I'm just gonna go grab another pack "

[00:01:44] Walks one block to the all-night station

[00:01:48] And steps into a situation

[00:01:52] There's a man with a gun

[00:01:54] Pointed at the nervous clerk

[00:02:00] And before he could think

[00:02:04] He was tackling the gunman

[00:02:08] Who hit his head and

[00:02:10] Was knocked unconscious

[00:02:28] The clerk relieved said "oh my god

[00:02:32] You're a hero man and you should stick around

[00:02:36] 'Til the cops get here

[00:02:38] Maybe you'll make the morning news "

[00:02:44] But the hometown hero rose to hit feet

[00:02:48] Tossed him the gun and said

[00:02:50] "thanks but i've gotta run

[00:02:53] I'll take a pack of camel lights and be on my way "

[00:03:00] He stepped outside the door

[00:03:04] Heard the sirens in the distance

[00:03:08] Lit his cigarette

[00:03:12] And said "man these things will kill me someday"

[00:03:16] Exhaled smoke and said "here's to hoping"
