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
|
|
[Bridge]
|
Until the referee rings the bell
|
Until both your eyes start to swell
|
Until the crowd goes home
|
What we gonna do ya'll?
|
|
[Chorus - Ryan Tedder]
|
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
|
|
[Verse 2]
|
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
|
|
[Bridge]
|
Until the referee rings the bell
|
Until both your eyes start to swell
|
Until the crowd goes home
|
What we gonna do ya'll?
|
|
[Chorus - Ryan Tedder]
|
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? [x7] 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?
|
