Hero In Your Own Hometown - Mary Chapin Carpenter[00:00:01]
We were born during the boom times[00:00:15]
Played house down in the bomb shelter[00:00:19]
Suffered through the wonder years[00:00:22]
And silence at the dinner hour[00:00:25]
But once upon a summertime[00:00:29]
Out behind the old garage[00:00:32]
We were buzzing on midnight[00:00:35]
Luckys and Rolling Rock[00:00:38]
Thinking we were[00:00:42]
Heroes in our own hometown[00:00:43]
Nothing less than[00:00:49]
Heroes in that old hometown[00:00:50]
Some married on a day in June[00:00:56]
Some disappeared without a trace[00:00:59]
And some of us are still at large[00:01:03]
Still searching for a better place[00:01:06]
But once upon another time[00:01:10]
Didn't matter what they said[00:01:12]
And didn't matter if we fell behind[00:01:16]
We'd still come out ahead[00:01:19]
'Cause we believed[00:01:23]
In heroes in that old hometown[00:01:24]
Hey you could be[00:01:29]
A hero in your own hometown[00:01:30]
Now I'm long away and very far[00:01:37]
From gazing at an evening sky[00:01:40]
From wishing on a shooting star[00:01:44]
From thinking that a heart can't lie[00:01:47]
This world is gonna wear you thin[00:01:51]
Not you up and spin you round[00:01:54]
This world will take it's aim[00:01:57]
Call you every name trying to bring you down[00:01:59]
Everything seems so clear[00:02:19]
When you're looking back from such a distance[00:02:21]
When the road not taken disappears[00:02:25]
Into the path of least resistance[00:02:28]
But once upon a time[00:02:32]
Oh so long ago[00:02:34]
Underneath this same old sky[00:02:38]
Every brand new road[00:02:42]
Would know that[00:02:45]
We were heroes in our own hometown[00:02:45]
Heroes in our own hometown[00:02:50]
Nothing less than[00:02:52]
Heroes in that old hometown[00:02:53]
Heroes in our own hometown[00:02:56]
We still loved[00:02:59]
A hero in our own hometown[00:03:00]
Heroes in our own hometown[00:03:03]
Baby you could be[00:03:05]
A hero in your own hometown[00:03:07]
