If you really want to know the truth,
Seventeen decisions in a row,
The rest was all K .O. Jack son and Johnson,
And they go, how's it done?
You ask me how's it done?
Sure feels good to have him in your corner
Hear his voice, a whispering low
stand toe to toe, trade blow for blow,
show that crowd what you know,
until you hear that bell, that final bell,
stand up and fight like hell.
Stand up and fight until you hear the bell,
stand tall to tall, stand tall to tall.
Keep marching till you hear your
until you hear that bell, that little bell,
stand up and fight like hell.
When you fight out in the open air,
the ring looks small and white.
you can feel a hundred thousand
Cigarettes are blinking in the dark
punch and plants it right
You kind of think it's you
That's all you want to do
and see your trainer's eyes
Begging you to see it through
They say, remember, big boy, remember
Stand tall to tall, trade law for law
So don't fear what you know,
until you hear that bell, that final bell,
stand up and fight like hell!
