The Underdog

Don't you ever let this world push you around

Use your head and keep your feet firmly on the ground

If you get knocked down get back up and try again

And don't you ever lose that sparkle in your eyes

Don't bottle up your passion like a jar of fireflies

And if you ever lose sight of your lights

And you feel like givin' in

Don't you forget your faith in God above

Don't you forget your mom and daddy's love

When you fear, when you fail, when you feel you're gonna fall

Follow your heart and always believe in the underdog

Don't buy a thing unless you can pay in cash

Go ahead and throw those credit cards in the trash

Love is a virtue, honesty is the key

Say your prayers, brush your teeth

Don't you watch too much TV

If you're down in the count, one strike away

Choke up and crowd the plate and put the ball in play

Keep your nose down when you win

And keep your head up when you lose

And you're gonna lose

And don't you forget your faith in God above

Don't you forget your mom and daddy's love

When you fear, when you fail, when you feel you're gonna fall

Follow your heart and always believe in the underdog

And there will come a day

When I will fly away so make me smile

While we're apart

You gotta sing from your soul and play with all of your heart

There's a good chance your heart will break in two

Trust that God has someone special planned for you

Did you know I was down on love and luck

When He sent your mom to me?

And someday you'll have babies of your own

So cherish every moment, you're gonna blink and they'll be grown

The greatest honor that I've ever had

Is havin' you call me your dad

Boys, don't forget your faith in God above

Don't you forget your mom and daddy's love

When you fear, when you fail, when you feel you're gonna fall

Follow your heart and always believe in the underdog

When you fear, when you fail, when you feel you're gonna fall

Follow your heart and always believe in the underdog
