Heroes and Friends

I ain't lived forever but I've lived enough

And I've learned to be gentle and I've learned to be tough

I've found only two things that last till the end

One is your heroes and the other's your friends

Your heroes will help you find good in yourself

Your friends won't forsake you for somebody else

They'll both stand beside you through thick and through thin

And that's how it goes with heroes and friends

I grew up with cowboys I watched on TV

My friends and I sometimes pretended to be

Years have gone by but now and again

My heart rides the range with my heroes and friends

Your heroes will help you find good in yourself

Your friends won't forsake you for somebody else

They'll both stand beside you through thick and through thin

And that's how it goes with heroes and friends

And that's how it goes with heroes and friends
