When poverty knocks, they keep on walking...
When opportunity comes, they answer the door.

They always stay great and happy...
Even if they haven't found what they're looking for.

They're our heroes, bold and true, they never ever ever quake...
They're our heroes, strong and true, they face off with evil in its wake.

They help us through, they give us love...
They bring us help from way above.

They're our heros, bold and true...
We walk in their footsteps me and you.
