I'll Be A Hero When I Strike

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   Now say they knew it all along 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 ain’t the kind to stand and brag And I’m the kind to stand right up and fight Don’t need a uniform to wear To make the people stop and stare 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 Wear medals hangin’ to the floor They’ll throw rocks at Franklin and his kind They’ll say boy ain’t that cowboy hot There ain’t nothin’ he ain’t got        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
