Story Behind The Song
I love the line from the movie Road To Perdition "Every son is his father's future" and I came up with the lines, "Every daughter is her Daddy's princess" so the line being sung by the daughter is, "I'm his little princess, Momma's his queen." There is a male version that nods to 'Perdition'. "I'm his every Dad's future, Momma's his queen"

Lyrics
My Hero
VERSE
He's a little bit Waltons with a dash of Dallas
Says, "home may be humble but it's our palace"
Chores around the house sweeping the yard
Fixin' up that old Mustang sleeping in the barn
Pre Chorus
His word is his bond and he lets you know it
If all it takes is work then let's get to it
Takes it in his stride plays with it for fun
Daddy You're My Hero Forever No.1
CHORUS
His world revolves around us Momma and me
I'm his little princess Momma's his queen
Everyone's a neighbour a compadre, a friend
Cracks jokes with his buds at the Sundowner Inn
He never really makes a big song and dance
Praises every day life gave him this chance
True lovin' and livin' in the now
Daddy You're My Hero take a bow
VERSE
He's full on busy 'til Momma walks by
Stops 'n' gazes at her dreams in his eyes
I say "Momma, Daddy's actin' kinda weird"
She says "Girl, ask yourself how you got here!"
Pre Chorus
Another day another few dollars
Brings it all home to me and Momma
True lovin' and livin' fun, heart and soul
Daddy You're My Hero I Love How You Roll
CHORUS
His world revolves around us Momma and me
I'm his little princess Momma's his queen
Everyone's a neighbour a compadre, a friend
Cracks jokes with his buds at the Sundowner Inn
He never really makes a big song and dance
Praises every day life gave him this chance
True lovin' and livin' in the now
Daddy You're My Hero take a bow
BRIDGE
He may be short on money he may be short on sleep
That don't matter got a family to keep
Won't ask for nothing works for what he needs
Determined to stand on his own two feet
CHORUS
His world revolves around us Momma and me
I'm his little princess Momma's his queen
Everyone's a neighbour a compadre, a friend
Cracks jokes with his buds at the Sundowner Inn
He never really makes a big song and dance
Praises every day life gave him this chance
True lovin' and livin' in the now
Daddy You're My Hero take a bow
CHORUS
His world revolves around us Momma and me
I'm his little princess Momma's his queen
Everyone's a neighbour a compadre, a friend
Cracks jokes with his buds at the Sundowner Inn
He never really makes a big song and dance
Praises every day life gave him this chance
True lovin' and livin' in the now
Daddy You're My Hero take a bow
