LYRICS Just waking up in the morning And to be well, Quite honest with ya, I ain't really sleep well Ya ever feel like your train of thought's been derailed? That's when you press on - Lee nails Half the population's just waitin to see me fail Yeah right, you're better off trying to freeze hell Some of us do it for the females And others do it for the retail But I do it for the kids, life threw the towel in on Everytime you fall it's only making your chin strong And I'll be in your corner like mick, baby, til the end Or when you hear a song from that big lady Until the referee rings the bell Until both your eyes start to swell Until the crowd goes home What we gonna do ya'll? Give em hell, turn their heads Gonna live life til we're dead. Give me scars, give me pain Then they'll say of me, say of me, say of me There goes the fighter, there goes the fighter Here comes the fighter That's what they'll say of me, say of me, say of me, This one's a fighter And if I can last thirty rounds There's no reason you should ever have your head down Six foot five, two hundred and twenty pounds Hailing from rock bottom, loserville, nothing town Text book version of a kid going nowhere fast And now I'm yelling "kiss my ass" It's gonna take a couple right hooks, a few left jabs For you to recognize you really ain't got it bad Until the referee rings the bell Until both your eyes start to swell Until the crowd goes home What we gonna do ya'll? Give em hell, turn their heads Gonna live life til we're dead. Give me scars, give me pain Then they'll say of me, say of me, say of me There goes the fighter, there goes the fighter Here comes the fighter That's what they'll say of me, say of me, say of me, This one's a fighter Everybody put yo hands up What we gonna do ya'll? If you fall pick yourself up off the floor (get up) And when your bones can't take no more (c'mon) Just remember what you're here for Cuz I know Imma damn sure Give em hell, turn their heads Gonna live life til we're dead. Give me scars, give me pain Then they'll say of me, say of me, say of me There goes the fighter, there goes the fighter Here comes the fighter That's what they'll say of me, say of me, say of me, This one's a fighter 'Til the referee rings the bell 'Til both ya eyes start to swell 'Til the crowd goes home, What we gonna do kid?
