Lyrics:
Heroes Are Home Grown
Vs 1
There was a kid, a bagger at the grocery
He used to cut my grass when he was just thirteen
A little girl sold her cookies in the neighborhood
We knew the money for the scouts would do folks good
Now she’s wearin’ Army Green, and that kid’s joinin’ the Marines
Everybody knows …
Chorus
Heroes are homegrown
Each and everyone our very own
Neighbors like family, reachin’ out a hand to you and me
Everywhere you go…Heroes are homegrown
Vs 2
The boy who had a paper route in High School
Made his parents proud; he always kept the rules
The girl who sang a solo in the church choir
Would make the coldest heart feel God's fire
Now she’s a teacher changin’ lives; he’s been a cop since last July
Everybody knows…
2nd Chorus
Heroes are homegrown
Workin’ everyday then comin’ home
Protectin’ city streets, stayin’ on the job for you and me
Everywhere you go…
Bridge
Just common people livin’ uncommon lives
Their everyday miracles – help others get by
Repeat 1st Chorus
Repeat 1st Chorus/Tag
