One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, knocking, box!
Tie my hand up nice and tight
I wanna do my best tonight
I don't have fear inside my brain
A boxin' man don't feel the pain
I'm a natural fighting man
To be the best was in my plan
I don't take bribes, I don't play tricks
You can't buy me, I won't be fixed
When I'm boxin'
When I'm boxin'
I'm livin' good and I'm livin' fine
I've paid the price but the world is mine
Champagne girls and fancy clothes
I've bought them all for a broken nose
But it's good to see your name in lights
Though one day they won't burn so bright
The day will come when the crowds won't cheer
The bell will ring but I won't hear
But I'm still boxin'
I love boxing
Boxing
Mmm box!
I use my head and not my hand
‘Cause I'm no fool, I understand
It's one for you and three for me
Yeah that's the way it's got to be
But don't you take me for a ride
‘Cause I got feelings deep inside
I might look hard and might look tough
But pain and tears I have enough
Oh I'm boxin'
Mmm boxin'
Boxin'
Mmm box!
You are the champ and we love you so much
You're our hero
In your silk dressing gown you shine
Just like a bright star up in the sky
You are our hero
So you punch his face, knock him down
Yes, that's what we came here to see
I live my life like a rolling stone
I might come back but I won't be home
‘Cause life is one big boxing show
So kiss me now before I go
Mmm it's good to see your name in lights
Though one day they won't burn so bright
The day will come when crowds won't cheer
The bell will ring but I won't hear
But I'll be up there boxin'
Mmm boxin'
Boxin'
Boxin'
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten. Out!
