Lyrics:

Well I have known 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 youd turn on the radio
And sing with the singer in the band
Your mama would say to you
This isnt exactly what we had planned

But youre 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 though I know you
Still have the heart of that small boy
Well, you lend it out far too much
And no one woman lovin you
Can ever feel that shes been really touched.

Then you turn on the radio
And sing with the singer in the band
Think kind of sadly to yourself
This isnt exactly what you had planned.

But youre 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.

Well a legends only a lonely boy
When he goes home alone.
