1
Found the girl of my dreams
2
And I moved out the hood
3
Had a little baby,
4
Life was all good
5
Then I got a call
6
That something was wrong
7
Next thing I know I was back to my old ways
8
Doin' it till they came and took me away
9
Now everything I worked for is gone (gone)
10
Oooh,
11
I wish I woulda turned away
12
I would still be free today
13
Sometimes it don't pay to be the hero
14
Oooh shoulda looked into my baby's eyes
15
Before I took another man's life
16
It don't pay to be the hero
17
(Oooh) There's nothing you can say to bring it back
18
You lost it just like that
19
I wish that we could turn around
20
Ooh, there's nothing you can say to bring it back
21
You lost it just like that
22
I wish that we could turn around
23
Don't know why I worked so hard to let that life go
24
I was mad, wasn't thinking about my family at home
25
And how much they depended on me
26
Now I'm looking at 20 years no parole,
27
I'm not going to get the chance to see my baby grow
28
And what's he going to think about his daddy (daddy, ooh)
29
[Chorus:]
30
[Bridge:]
31
So many nights I don't sleep (nights I don't sleep)
32
Cuz I think about the things that I've seen (things that I've seen)
33
There almost really
34
Driving me crazy
35
Instead a piece of glass separates my family from me (Oooh)
36
[Chorus:]
37
Oooh,
38
Wish I woulda turned away (wish I woulda turned away)
39
I would still be free today
40
Sometimes it don't pay to be the hero (don't pay, noo)
41
Oooh shoulda looked into my baby's eyes (looked into my baby's eyes)
42
Before I took another man's life
43
It don't pay to be the hero (it don't pay to be the hero)
44
(Oooh) There's nothing you can say to bring it back
45
You lost it just like that
46
I wish that we could turn around (I wish I coulda turned around, yehh)
47
Ooh, there's nothing you can say to bring it back
48
You lost it just like that
49
I wish that we could turn around
50
[Ending]
51
Found the girl of my dreams
52
And I moved out the hood
53
Had a little baby,
54
Life was all good
55
Then I got a call
56
That something was wrong...
