Everybody Needs A Hero |
| He drove a '47 Buick Special |
| Them dusty roads were hell on the shine |
| And about once a week he’d be down by the creek |
| And I’d help him wash it sometime |
| He had a pinstriped suit and a gold watch |
| And a gold chain that hung from his chest |
| He drank a little and he gambled a lot |
| He was a wild one I guess |
| 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 |
| Lord how he loved country music |
| He played an old Peavey guitar |
| At a roadhouse one night he was called on to fight |
| Somebody pushed him too far |
| So he served a little time in prison |
| But he served four long years in the war |
| It was in the Pacific where he got his tattoo |
| Two hearts in blue on his arm |
| 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 |
| My mama says I turned out just like him |
| She worries and prays that I’ll change |
| I didn’t know till a few days ago |
| Why he sent me his gold watch and chain |
| 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 |
| When you’re ten years old |
| Down in south Georgia |
| Heroes are hard to find |
| Savannah Slim was mine |
