MY HERO
My hero is a "blue shirt"
He wears a badge and gun
Serves his public night and day,
He says the road is fun
He risks his life for strangers,
Always does his part
A modern-day crusader,
My hero has a heart
Sometimes his soul is weary,
Midnights can be rough
With little rest, he does his best
Decisions, too, are tough
Other days are funny,
Some are sad, its true
His life's about just helping out
The likes of me and you
My hero loves his uniform
He loves the risky life
He's proud to be a blue shirt
I'm proud to be his wife.
