Jesse James was a wild west man
A stone cold killer
Don't need no gang, no
And Norma Jean hit the silver screen
The biggest thing
I've ever seen, wow
(we need a hero) hold on n don't let go
(some kinda hero) I know (we know)
If you want it, come n get it
Heroes die young, heroes die young
I said, it's only natural
You're like an animal
Heroes die young, heroes die young
So play the game, pay the price
Take a one way ticket to Paradise, now
JFK couldn't get away
Dallas shook the USA
(We need a hero) hold on, don't let go
(Some kinda hero) I know (we know)
If you want it, come n get it
Heroes die young, heroes die young
I said, it's only natural
You're like an animal
Heroes die young, heroes die young
So you wanna live fast n die young
You wanna be a hero?
Go ahead, blow your life away?
(Heroes) die young
(Heroes) so if ya want it, come n get it
(Heroes) oh heroes die young
(Heroes) heroes die young
(Heroes) oh if ya want it just come n get it
(Heroes) die young, die young, die young
