"The Underdog"
--Steve Azar
I wake up just to work hard every day
Nothing free and nothing easy ever comes my way
My 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 standing 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 looking thing to hit this town
She believes in me even though her folks don't want me coming 'round
They've got bigger plans for her than me
I've got something inside they can't see
But someday I swear they will
Cause I won't always be
The underdog, the one whose back stays against the wall
The underdog, I'll still be standing 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 old boy's brought 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 standing 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
