lyrics

Verse 1
everything i know
i learned in the ring
how to block a punch
when to take a swing

i always won or lost on points
i never knocked anyone cold
because boxing is the sweetest science
it's all about self-control

Chorus
boxing is all about the man
who is standing iin front of you
to know he is exactly
the same kind of man as you

Verse 2
some people are cursed with a calling
others will call with a curse
there are brutes in it just for the knockout
and some only fight for the purse

the athiest in the foxhole says
"we are all in the foxhole now"
and the only one here who has any faith left
is the cat who is pushing the cow

Bridge
we are not born in sin
the best man always wins
the cat says she has moved it
and she doesnt have to prove it

Chorus
boxing is all about the man
who is standing iin front of you
and know he is exactly
the same kind of man as you
