Yesterdays Hero
John Paul Young
Intro: Verse When I walk down the street See the people who stop and stare and say Haven’t I seen that face somewhere a long time ago When I walk down the street See the stranger who says "Why Hi" With a "How you going Buddy" When you walked on by I thought I’d say hello Pre-Chorus They say: Haven’t I seen your face before Weren’t you the boy that used to live next door Weren’t you on television ev’ry night Haven’t I seen you round Take a look at me I’m yesterday’s hero Yesterday’s hero that’s all I’ll be. Take a look at me I’m yesterday’s hero And yesterday’s hero is all that I’m gonna be If I don’t get together Make a new start and be somebody better All that I’ll be if I don’t get together now. Verse When you walk down the street If you know me then pass me by If you wonder what I’m doing don’t ask me why I don’t read the news~ When you walk down the street If you’re sorry then don’t feel bad If you followed my story then just be glad You ain’t in my shoes Pre-Chorus Because Haven’t you seen my face before Yes I was the boy who used to live next door Yes I was on television ev’ry night Haven’t you seen me round. Take a look at me I’m yesterday’s hero Yesterday’s hero that’s all I’ll be. Take a look at me I’m yesterday’s hero And yesterday’s hero is all that I’m gonna be If I don’t get together Make a new start and be somebody better All that I’ll be if I don’t get together now.
