Somebody’s Hero
This song makes me think of my mom…and my aunt….and my Gramma. May someone see me as a hero someday. :) Those three certainly are, to me.

Jamie O’Neal~~Somebody’s Hero~~
She’s never pulled anyone from a burning building
She’s never rocked Central Park to a half a million fans, screaming out her name
She’s never hit a shot to win the game
She’s never left her footprints on the moon
She’s never made a solo hot air balloon ride, around the world,
No, she’s just your everyday average girl (but)
She’s somebody’s hero
A hero to her baby with a skinned up knee
A little kiss is all she needs
The keeper of the cheerios
The voice that brings Snow White to life
Bedtime stories every night
And that smile lets her know
She’s somebody’s hero
She didn’t get a check every week like a nine-to fiver
But she’s been a waiter, and a cook and a taxi driver
For twenty years, there at home, until the day her girl was grown
Giving all her love to her was her life’s ambition
But now her baby’s movin’ on, and she’ll soon be missin’ her
But not today, those are tears of joy runnin’ down her face
She’s somebody’s hero
A hero to her daughter in her wedding dress
She gave her wings to leave the nest
It hurts to let her baby go down the aisle she walks right by
Looks back into her mother’s eyes
And that smile lets her know
She’s somebody’s hero
Thirty years have flown right past
Her daughters’ starin’ at all the photographs
Of her mother, and she wishes she could be like that
Oh, but she already is
She’s somebody’s hero
A hero to her mother in a rockin’ chair
She runs a brush through her silver hair
The envy of the nursing home
She drops by every afternoon
Feeds her mama with a spoon
And that smile lets her know
Her mother’s smile lets her know
She’s somebody’s hero
Great song, with well-chosen words.
I like that song!
That is a great song!
Good song! Here from Michele’s. I like this blog!
Another great song. You always share such good ones.
That’s really nice. Thanks for the smile this evening. Thanks, too, for visiting me via Michele’s yesterday. I’ve been here before and always enjoy your site. I’ll be back!
I’m sure you’re a hero to your kids too, Tammy!
Even though I’ve heard this song a bunch of times on the radio, it gave me chills just now, listening to it here.
Thanks! Have a good one!!
Ma will never have silver hair!! No this is really nice, Tam. And this will easily apply to you someday with the girls, and you know this!! =)
A well deserved tribute to Motherhood. I never heard it before but sent it to all my sister-friend heros as well as my own mother. Thanks so much.
