Great White Hope — текст песни (styx)

(James Young)
When I ws 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 likethis 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
CHORUS
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
CHORUS
