One slot machine, one stoplight town,
And if Jesus came back tonight,
To every story there are two sides,
If you walk with the devil he'll tell you a lie,
Rolls Royce coming through the air (I'm nobody's hero)
I hope that I will see you there, (I'm nobody's hero)
Hit the ground running on the streets of gold, (I'm nobody's hero)
Gotta make time for the president's soul, (I'm nobody's hero)
Never believed in the music the way I believe in you,
One slot machine, one stoplight town,
And if Jesus came back tonight,
To every story there are two sides,
If you walk with the devil he'll tell you a lie,
Never been a lover, I always been a fighter, (I'm nobody's hero)
Fought all my life trying to find love, (I'm nobody's hero)
Love of many shall wax cold, (I'm nobody's hero)
What I do, I do alone, (I'm nobody's hero)
Never believed in the music the way I believe in you.
Desires and fears, my doubts, my tears,
My joys, my loves to him above,
My anguish and my lust, the skeletons I dust.
One slot machine, one stoplight town,
And if Jesus came back tonight,
To every story there are two sides,
If you walk with the devil he'll tell you a lie,
Never believed in the music the way I believe in you,
Walked through the valley of dry bones, (I'm nobody's hero)
I was brushed by the shadow of the Holy Ghost, (I'm nobody's hero)
Greased leprosy through my hair, (I'm nobody's hero)
Felt the rushing, mighty wind, (I'm nobody's hero)
Never believed in the music the way I believe in you.
