everybody needs a hero
joan jett and the blackhearts
someone who always knows the way
just when you're sure you've really gone astray
he'll always save the day
and today is just another one of those days
when i wish i had me one of those heroes
it's what everybody needs
everybody needs a good friend
and in your life if one is found
you know you knew just where you stood when
your good friend was around
no one could put you down
and today is just another one of those days
when i wish i had me one of those good friends
it's what everybody needs
so there'll be a chance to plant seeds
so there'll be someone behind who'll be there to remind 'em of their deeds
and no one knows why everybody needs
someone to spend the night so dear
and mornings when you wanna hide your head beneath the covers
if you have your lover near
you'll never know that fear
and today is just another one of those days
when i wish i had me one of those
today is just another one of those days
when i wish i had me one of those
today is just another one of those days
when i wish i had me one of those
today is just another one of those days
when i wish i had me one of those heroes
