Some Kind of Hero

Well, I walked out into the shadows

Just as the clock was striking nine

I was looking for a good girl

Somehow I ended up with mine

She's got footprints all around her window

She's got scratch marks all down her back

She tells me I'm the only one

Somehow I don't think that's a fact

I wish I was some kind of hero

I'd shake my head and I'd walk away

I'd have fifty women waiting for me

Before the breaking of the day

Early in the morning, I see her coming

Walking sideways in her shoes

She'll do anything she has to do

Just to keep her man confused

I wish I was some kind of hero

I would not worry, I'd turn and go

You'd be looking at my picture, babe

And I'll be somewhere down the road
