[Verse 1]
He doesn't fight crime or wear a cape
He doesn't read minds or levitate
But every time my world needs saving
He's my Superman
Some folks don't believe in heroes
'Cause they haven't met my dad

[Verse 2]
He loves his workshop and rock 'n roll
He's got a hot rod and a heart of gold
And you could say he's a man of few words
But he talks a lot within
And even though' I'm a little taller
I still look up to him

[Chorus]
He built me a house in the arms of a tree
He taught me to drive and to fight and to dream
When he looks in my eyes, I hope he can see that
My dad's a hero to me

[Verse 3]
Rust ridden fenders and doors full of dings
Somehow he can fix about anything
I didn't think he knew how to cry
Till our dog died that year
He doesn't always say I love you
But I can hear him loud and clear
[Chorus]
He built me a house in the arms of a tree
He taught me to drive and to fight and to dream
When he looks in my eyes, I hope he can see that
My dad's a hero to me

[Outro]
He built me a house in the arms of a tree
He taught me to drive and to fight and to dream
When he looks in my eyes, I hope he can see
My dad's a hero to me
My dad's a hero to me
My dad's a hero to me
