Where have all the heroes gone?
Legend has it now moved on
But I heard it said in an old time song
The clay may decay but the breath lives on
& I will not fail to make ends meet
When the savior comes, I’ll be standing on my feet
& the holy ones will gather round
& send their blessings dancing through the sound

Chorus:
Everyday is an adventure
When you’re livin’ the dream
The music is my center
You can keep the place clean

& I hear the sound the crickets make
The ones down by the murky lake
& I swear the time I did not take
Has turned mine eyes from what’s at stake
& I’ll pick it up where they left off
& tow the line thought it’ll never be enough
To fill the shoes of those who dreamt
Long before the world would know exactly what they meant

Chorus
