In Louisville, Kentucky, name of Cassius Clay
Fought my way up to see another day
Seven [Incomprehensible] 'gainst ol' Sonny Liston
Took my title from him but I kept on my mission
Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee
Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee
You know you got me dancing
I'm the champion of the ring
Know my name is Muhammad Ali
No George Foreman ever called me quitter
No Viet Cong ever called me nigger
Threw my gold medal in the Ohio river
I won for the 'Land of the Free'
Kumbaya
Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee
Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee
You know you got me dancing
I'm the champion of the ring
Know my name is Muhammad Ali
Yes, my mind is free and all you
Heaven never forgive
Yes, in time you'll see
I am the most beautiful
I am the most beautiful body, yeah
I know my destination and I, and I know the truth
Yes, I am The Louisville Lip that you been talkin' to
All my life I been dancing like [Incomprehensible]
Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee
Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee
Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee
You know you got me dancing
I'm the champion of the ring
Know my name is Muhammad Ali
