Lyrics:

[Verse 1]
He doesn't fight crime
Or wear a cape
He doesn't read minds
Or levitate
But every time my world needs saving
He's my Superman
Some folks don't believe in heroes
'Cause they haven't met my dad

[Instrumental Bridge 1]

[Verse 2]
He loves his workshop
And rock 'n roll
He's got a hot rod
And a heart o' gold
And you could say he's a man of few words
But he talks a lot within
And even though' I'm a little taller
I still look up to him

[Chorus]
He built me a house in the arms of a tree
He taught me to drive and to fight and to dream
When he looks in my eyes I hope he can see that
My dad's a hero to me

[Instrumental Bridge 2]

[Verse 3]
Rust ridden fenders
And doors full of dings
Somehow he can fix about anything
I didn't think he knew how to cry
'Til our dog died that year
He doesn't always say I love you
But I can hear him loud and clear

[Chorus]
He built me a house in the arms of a tree
He taught me to drive and to fight and to dream
When he looks in my eyes I hope he can see
That my dad's a hero to me

[Instrumental Bridge 3]

[Chorus]
He built me a house in the arms of a tree
He taught me to drive and to fight and to dream
When he looks in my eyes I hope he can see
That my dad's a hero to me

[Outro (x2)]
(My dad's a hero)
(My dad's a hero)
(My dad's a hero)
My dad's a hero to me
