You've forgotten your days of gloryBut they still praise your storyCause a man of courageStands tall through time and memoryThose wartime souls you savedYou stood strong, fearless, and braveThey'll never forgetThe sacrifices you madeOnce a hero, always a heroHere's to a job well doneHere's to a job well doneYou made your markEven gave your lifeFor someoneOnce a heroAlways a heroMemories fade, courage don'tThe world spins till it won'tAnd once in a whileA hero comes aroundThrough dust, dirt, and gritWe all learn where we fitThis life ain't fairBut we can fight for itOnce a heroAlways a heroHere's to a job well doneYou made your markEven gave your lifeFor someoneOnce a heroAlways a heroOnce a heroA thousand years from nowNo one will recall your nameBut you changed the worldA little just the same
