Homecoming queen she had it all
The captain of the cheering squad
No one could understand
Why she decided to join after senior year
The army recuit said sign right here and he sher hand
Anywhere else she's just an average Jane
Just a rank and a Number
No one knows her name
But once you pass that little green sign
That says population 299
She's a hero in her hometown
When she walks in a room she draws a crowd
Celebrating decorating
With medals and pins from the war she was in
Served just like her father and
Two generations before him
Made the choice and served her country proud
She's a hero in her hometown
Sitting at the air port in army greens
People will gather but don't say a thing
Just another face
Trying her best to make her way back home
Family has said she's been away to long
It's a special thing
Anywhere else she's just an average Jane
Just a rank and a Number
No one knows her name
But once you pass that little green sign
That says population 299
She's a hero in her hometown
When she walks in a room she draws a crowd
Celebrating decorating
With medals and pins from the war she was in
Served just like her father and
Two generations before him
Made the choice and served her country proud
She's a hero in her hometown
She's a hero in her hometown
When she walks in a room she draws a crowd
Celebrating decorating
With medals and pins from the war she was in
Served just like her father and
Two generations before him
Made the choice and served her country proud
She's a hero in her hometown
