Great White Hope

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

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

Look at me

I'm against the ropes

Look at me

So hard to cope

Look at me

Great white hope

Look at me

Up against the ropes

Look at me
