I`ll Be A Hero When I Strike Lyrics

All because I walk a different street

And not helloed  by some I meet

That don't mean that what I do ain't right

Those that said that I was wrong

Now say thay knew it all along

'Cause I'll be a hero when I strike



I'll be a hero when I strike

Come up tight and out of sight

They'll say I'm dynamite

And they'd like to be there when I lite

'Cause I'll be a hero when I strike



I love God and the flag

And I ain't the kind to stand and brag

And I'm the kind to stand right up and fight

Don't need a uniform to wear

To make the people stop and stare

'Cause, Hoss, I'll be a hero when I strike



I'll be a hero when I strike

Come up tight and out of sight

They'll say I'm dynamite

And they'd like to be there when I lite

'Cause I'll be a hero when I strike



Won't shake hands until I'm sore

Wear medals hangin' to the floor

They'll throw rocks at Franklin and his kind

They'll say, boy, ain't that cowboy hot

There ain't nothin' he ain't got

But I'm gonna be a hero when I strike



I'll be a hero when I strike

Come up tight and out of sight

They'll say I'm dynamite

And they'd like to be there when I lite

'Cause I'll be a hero when I strike
