All because I walk a different street
And not helloed by some I meet
That don't mean that what I do is right
Those that said that I was wrong
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 light
Cause I'll be a hero when I strike
I love God and the flag
And I'm the kind to stand right up and fight
Don't need a uniform to wear
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 light
Cause I'll be a hero when I strike
Won't shake hands until I'm sore
They'll throw rocks at Franklin and his kind
They'll say boy ain't that cowboy hot
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 light
Cause I'll be a hero when I strike
