(Steve Azar/Rafe Van Hoy)

|
I wake up just to work hard every day
|
Nothin' free and nothin' easy ever comes my way
|
Hands are calloused, my body is bruised
|
I won't give up and I will not lose
|
Just when you count me out, that's when I'll come
|
Through I'm
|
|
The underdog
|
The one whose back stays against the wall
|
The underdog
|
I'll still be standin' when the favorite falls
|
So they say I'm not that strong
|
And the odds are way too long
|
Well, I was born to prove them wrong
|
I'm the underdog
|
|
My baby's the best lookin' thing to hit this town
|
She believes in me even though her folks don't
|
Want me comin' 'round
|
They got bigger plans for her than me
|
I've got somethin' inside they can't see
|
But someday I swear they will, 'cause I won't
|
Always be ohh
|
|
The underdog
|
The one whose back stays against the wall
|
The underdog
|
I'll still be standin' when the favorite falls
|
So they say I'm not that strong
|
And the odds are way too long
|
Well, I was born to prove them wrong
|
I'm the underdog
|
|
I know every verse and every word of 1st Samuel 17
|
I love it when that big ol' boy's bought down to
|
His knees
|
And it sometimes seems that all my dreams are over
|
Nine feet tall
|
And I'm the little man with a rock in his hand
|
Just like David in overalls I'm
|
|
The underdog
|
The one whose back stays against the wall
|
The underdog
|
I'll still be standin' when the favorite falls
|
So they say I'm not that strong
|
And the odds are way too long
|
Well, I was born to prove them wrong
|
I'm the underdog
|
|
Oh, I'm the underdog
|
Don't you count me out
|
Yeah
