Lyrics Too Late the Hero - 2016 Remastered - Foghat

I
got
a
message
from
a
girl
in
distress,
She
was
a
prisoner
in
an
apartment
address.
But
like
a
hero
to
the
scene
of
the
crime,
I
lost
my
way
and
there
was
so
little
time.
Stood
at
a
bus
stop
on
a
cold
rainy
day,
Tire
through
a
puddle,
threw
some
mud
in
my
face.
No
bus
arrived
so
I
just
crawled
into
town,
I
took
my
chances
on
the
underground.
Subway
station,
wall
to
wall
people,
I
couldn′t
squeeze
onto
a
train.
In
desperation,
I
looked
for
a
taxi,
but,
oh,
the
searching
was
in
vain.
Too
late
the
hero,
from
ten
down
to
zero.
Too
late
the
hero,
why
did
she
say,
"Boy,
boy
you're
way
too
late!"?
She
said
"Boy,
boy
you′re
way
too
late!"
I
caught
a
train
but
there
was
nowhere
to
sit,
Reached
for
a
strap,
I
thought
I
heard
something
rip,
There
on
the
Central
Line,
my
pants
fell
apart.
Train
broke
down
and
we
were
stuck
in
the
dark.
Subway
tunnel
claustrophobia,
best
suit,
wrinkled
and
damp,
Finally
when
I
crawled
up
to
her
door,
she
said,
"Goodbye
chump!"
Too
late
the
hero,
from
ten
down
to
zero.
Too
late
the
hero,
why
did
she
say,
"Boy,
boy
you're
way
too
late!"?
She
said
"Boy,
boy
you're
way
too
late!"
Did
I
see
someone
in
the
shadow?
Did
I
hear
footsteps
on
the
floor?
Did
I
hear
laughter
in
the
background
just
before
she
slammed
that
door?
{Instrumental}
I
turned
around
and
I
headed
home,
I
was
tired,
rejected
and
cold.
Missed
the
last
train,
left
around
midnight,
so
I
walked
that
lonesome
road.
Too
late
the
hero,
from
ten
down
to
zero.
Too
late
the
hero,
why
did
she
say,
"Boy,
boy
you′re
way
too
late!"?
She
said
"Boy,
boy
you′re
way
too
late!"
(Too
late,
too
late
the
hero)
Way
too
late.
(Too
late,
too
late
the
hero)
Way
too
late.
(Too
late,
too
late
the
hero)
Way
too
late,
Too
late
hey
hey
hey...
