From Louisville Kentucky name of Cassius Clay
|
Fought my way out to see another day
|
Seven to one odds against ol' Sonny Liston
|
Took my title from me but I kept on my mission
|
|
Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee
|
Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee
|
You know you've got me dancing
|
I'm the champion of the ring
|
You know my name
|
Is Muhammad Ali
|
|
No George Foreman ever called me a quitter
|
No Viet Cong ever called me a nigger
|
Threw my gold medal in the Ohio river
|
I won for the land of the free. Bumaye
|
|
Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee
|
Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee
|
You know you've got me dancing
|
I'm the champion of the ring
|
You know my name
|
Is Muhammad Ali
|
|
Yes my mind is free and all your love I'll never forget
|
Yes in time you'll see
|
I am the most beautiful
|
I am the most beautiful fighter yet
|
|
I know my destination and I know the truth
|
Yes I am the Louisville Lip that you've been talking to
|
All my life I've been dancing, like a rooster I will sing
|
Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee
|
|
Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee
|
Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee
|
You know you've got me dancing
|
I'm the world champion of the ring
|
You know my name
|
Is Muhammad Ali
