When I Was A Young Man, I Had To Kick And Scratch And Claw

Now It's Like Top Gun In The Old West, Everybody Wants Me To Draw

If I Had Known It Would Be Like This I Might Have Given It A Second Thought

But If Someone Had Told Me To Give It Up, It's A Line That I Wouldn't Have Bought



Look At Me

I'm The Great White Hope

Can't You See

I'm Up Against The Ropes

Don't You Know

It's So Hard To Cope

When You Feel

Like The Great White Hope



Now You've Paid Your Money You're Sitting In Your Ringside Seat

And I Know That Some Of You Out There, Might Wanna See The Champ Get Beat

If I Had Known It Would Be Like This I Might Have Given It A Second Thought

But Real Life Sure Isn't Like School, There's Some Lessons That Just Can't Be Taught



Look At Me

I'm The Great White Hope

Can't You See

I'm Up Against The Ropes

Don't You Know

It's So Hard To Cope

When You Feel

Like The Great White Hope
