Some guys have the first round to get the job done
Some guys are fast but they faint and run
I've been caught with life's hard left, it rattled my cage
Strength is the last thing you lose with age
Always the underdog and never the champ
Busted and broken, a beat up tramp
Smart money's on the guy who can jab and dance
But the long shot's gonna pay off, darling, I got a puncture's chance
My legs went so big when you worked my eyes
Kept my mind on that prize
I've had a few rounds, maybe more than my share
And you've had your open fights, but we're still standing here
Always the underdog and never the champ
Busted and broken, a beat up tramp
Smart money's on the guy who can jab and dance
But the long shot's gonna pay off, darling, I got a puncture's chance
I'm not flat on my feet, I'm no butterfly
I can't sting like a bee and I fall hard
As the heavyweights do, you barely touched me, girl
And look how hard I fell for you
So lay your money down on a heart beatin' strong
Forget the short game, we're gonna play long
If you are willing to go the distance with me
I'll be in your corner, whatever may be
Always the underdog and never the champ
Busted and broken, a beat up tramp
Smart money's on the guy who can jab and dance
But the long shot's gonna pay off, darling, I got a puncture's chance
I got a puncture's chance
Mmm
