(Chorus:) I'll be glad to sign my autograph If you want me to God knows I love singing It's what I was born to do
You see me up there center stage In the spotlight for awhile But in the things that really matter I'm just sittin' on the aisle
Cause I've seen a third grade angel With dark circles 'neath her eyes Not a trace of hair left on her head Sayin' daddy please don't cry A single mom working overtime A college kid reading to the blind When you look for heroes know that I'm just A singer in a band
I'm thankful to be living in This childhood dream come true But sometimes the attention Just leaves me confused Yeah, I love my t-shirt on those kids My name there up in lights But when the show is done and I'm on the bus Riding through the night
I think of New York City and Those firemen and cops Who ran in and laid down their lives Because it was their job A soldier in a field of mines With each step he lays it on the line When you look for heroes know that I'm just A singer in a band
I'm humble when you take the time To hear my life and verse and rhyme But when you look for heroes know that I'm just A singer in a band
