gene watson - everybody needs a hero lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
he drove a ’47 buick special
them dusty roads were h+ll on the shine
and about once a week, he’s be done by the creek
and i’d help him wash it sometimes

[verse 2]
he had a pinstripe suit and a gold watch
and a gold chain that hung on his chest
he drank a little and he gambled a lot
he was a wild one, i guess
[chorus]
oh, but everybody needs a hero
savannah slim was mine
when you’re ten years old down in south georgia
heroes are hard to find

[verse 3]
lord, how he loved country music
he playеd an old peavey guitar
at a roadhouse onе night, he was called on to fight
somebody pushed him too far

[verse 4]
so he served a little time in prison
but he served four long years in the war
it was in pacific where he got his tattoo
two hearts in blue on his arm

[chorus]

[verse 5]
now mama says i turned out just like him
she worries and prays that i’ll change
i didn’t know ’til a few days ago
why he sent me his gold watch and chain
[chorus]

[tag]
when you’re ten years old down in south georgia
heroes are hard to find
savannah slim was mine
