Lucky Dube Lyrics
"Hero"

Do you see the smiles on their faces

After you have done what you do best?

Do you see satisfaction on their faces

After you have blessed them with your gift?

You don't think it's much but to them it means the world

They wake up in the morning and wish you were there

Don't have to lie to gain their trust

You have never won a Nobel prize, they've never seen you on the TV

Your little contribution makes their lives a little bit better every day

You are a hero, you are a hero

You are a hero, you are a hero

You are a hero, you are a hero

You are a hero, you are a hero

Big it up, big it up for the fireman

Big it up, big it up for the street cleaners

Big it up for the man and the woman

Who take care of abandoned children

Big it up, big it up for the grandmothers

Who are left to take care of the children

Big it up, big it up

You are a hero, you are a hero

You are a hero, you are a hero

You are a hero, you are a hero

Hero, hero

You are a hero, you are a hero

You are a hero, you are a hero

You are a hero, you are a hero
