Artist/Band: Dolly Parton
Lyrics for Song: Everyday Hero
Lyrics for Album: Rainbow [1987]



(Blaise Tosti - Robert O'Hearn)



He takes the train into the city, to him it's more than just a working day

'Cause he knows he can change the world in his ordinary way

She's got a job she has a family she tries to keep them both together

She's barely gettin' by saving everything she makes

Day by day it seems it's gettin' harder to win

How much longer are they ready for their ship to come in.



These are the times of the everyday hero

This is the battlefield of the working man

Tryin' to survive staying alive giving it all that he can

With a fire in his soul that keeps burning

And a dream in her heart that won't die

Living day to day there's no easy way in this everyday life.



They started out as high school sweethearts he promised her a life of luxury

Though they don't have riches they have everything they need

The eyes of her child are her diamonds the gift of his love are her pearl

Together they plan taking a stand to make this a better world

But never breaking knowing that their dreams will begin

Getting stronger in each other's arms.



There are the times of the everyday hero

This is the battlefield of the working man

Tryin' to survive staying alive giving it all that he can

With a fire in his soul that keeps burning

And a dream in her heart that won't die

Living day to day there's no easy way in this everyday life.



Everybody has a special reason

There's a chosen road to follow

Just remember nothing good comes easy

Don't surrender till you find your rainbow



--- Instrumental ---



These are the times of the everyday hero

This is the battlefield of the working man

Tryin' to survive staying alive giving it all that he can

With a fire in his soul that keeps burning

And a dream in her heart that won't die

Living day to day there's no easy way in this everyday life...
