Lyrics:Well I have know you
Since you were a small boy
And your mama used to say
My
boy is gonna grow up and be
Some kind of leader some day.

Then you'd turn on
the radio
And sing with the singer in the band
And your mama would say to you

This isn't exactly what she had planned.

But you're a legend in your own time

A hero in the footlights
Playin' tunes to fit your rhyme
But a legends only a lonely
boy
When he goes home alone.

And although I know you
Still have the
heart of that small boy
Well, you lend it out far too much
And no one woman loving you

Can ever tell if you've been really touched.

Then you turn on the radio

And sing with the singer in the band
And think kind of sadly to yourself
This isn't
exactly what you had planned.

But you're a legend in your own time
A hero in
the footlights
Playin' tunes to fit your rhyme
But a legends only a lonely boy

When he goes home alone
