Ill be glad to sign my autograph if you want me to
God knows I love singin, that's what I was born to do
You see me up there center stage in the spotlight for a while
But in the things that really matter Im just sittin on the aisle
Cause Ive seen a third grade angel with dark circles neath her eyes
Not a trace of hair left on her head saying, Daddy, please dont cry
A single Mom working overtime, a college kid readin to the blind
When you look for heroes know that Im just a singer in a band
Im thankful to be living in this childhood dream come true
But sometimes the attention just leaves me confused
Yeah, I love my T-shirt on those kids, my name there up in lights
But when the show is done and Im on the bus ridin through the night
I think of New York City and those firemen and cops
Who ran in and laid down their lives because it was their job
A soldier in a field of mines with each step he lays it on the line
When you look for heroes know that Im just a singer in a band
Im humbled when you take the time to hear my life in verse and rhyme
But when it comes to heroes know that Im just a singer in a band
Im a singer in a band
Ill be glad to sign my autograph if you want me to
God knows I love singin, that's what I was born to do
