lyrics

You won't ever hear me apologize,
No, I don't back down.
You won't ever see me compromise,
No, I don't mess around.

You called me a rebel,
You say that I'm wrong.
But I ain't got no quarrel
With that Vietcong.
You called me a dodger,
You say that I'm weak.
I am not the one you'll beat...
I don't lose.

I took a step out of the ring,
I took off my golden gloves.
I got a good, good look at things,
And I said (oh Lord), "I've had enough."
Excuse me your honor,
Can I take the stand?
Why should I bother
To fight for your plan?
I gave you my title now you want my life,
You can't win, I'll tell you why:

I float like a butterfly,
Sting like a bee, you won't ever beat me.
I'm the greatest, and I can back that up -
Extraordinary uppercut.
I'm a champion, I love to win,
I knock 'em out, that's what I'm about.
Shine the spotlight, shuffle.
Here comes the snakebite, trouble.

Though sometimes it may seem you've lost the fight.
I've got your back, I'm standing by your side.
Cassius Clay is fighting for us,
Stand your ground and keep your head up high.

I float like a butterfly,
Sting like a bee, you won't ever beat me.
I'm the greatest, and I can back that up -
Extraordinary uppercut.
I'm a champion, I love to win,
I knock 'em out, that's what I'm about.
Shine the spotlight, shuffle.
Here comes the snakebite, trouble, I

float like a butterfly.
