Sittin' in a bar talking to my friends Talking till the night is day All the girls we knew all the girls we lost Headed straight from love to hate Oh, we are fighting for love so it seems But we're just trying to keep our dreams Strumming with our friends Girls are broken down to tears There's beggars and heroes like me Beggars and heroes like me And they're fighting and they're stealing Begging for a feeling In the end they all surrender They're beggars and heroes like me Sittin' in a bar just a drink or two Makes it easy to survive Good old country songs good old country tales About the real things in life Though we are heroes and ready to fight But girls keep breaking our hearts at night Held us in their arms lost forever to their star They're beggars and heroes like me Beggars and heroes like me And there's fighting and there's stealing Begging for a feeling In the end they all surrender They're beggars and heroes like me And they're fighting and they're stealing Begging for a feeling In the end they all surrender They're beggars and heroes like me Beggars and heroes like me Beggars and heroes like me Beggars and heroes like me
