Testi musica canzoni

by David Crosby, Craig Doerge

Well I went out for my evenin' stroll

All along the boulevard

It's familiar turf, from the hills

To the surf

I treat it like my front yard

Well I right away ran into

a girl I know.

She said you gotta come with

me tonight, the word

is out that the underdog

and the monkey gonna finally fight.

Been fightin'...fightin'

fightin' just to stay alive

I've been fightin'...fightin'

Fightin' to get from

Four o'clock to five.

Now I'm not what you'd call

a violent man.

But the news brought a smile

to my face.

Cause the underdog is a

friend of mine.

I'd love to see him

Put that monkey in his place.

You may think I'm crazy

The odds are against the dog

you understand;

This monkey is as strong as

a gorilla.

He'd stretch a tire like

a rubber band.

But I've been fightin'...fightin'

fightin' just to stay alive

I've been fightin'...fightin'

Fightin' to get from

Four o'clock to five.

Now, he's sneaky

and he'll smile

Right at you, pretend

to like your boots

And all the while,

he'd be thinking

How to rip your soul

out by the roots.

When we got there

my old underdog.

He didn't really look too goo, no

But when his eyes met mine

and he said

I'll kick his ass.

and I knew right then he would

I've been fightin'

I've been fightin'

Fightin' just to stay alive

I've been fightin'...fightin'

Fightin' to get from

Four o'clock to five.

Well now I don't want

To bore you.

With a bunch of dialogue.

It's not how much dog

is in the fight

It's how much fight

is in the dog.

And I've been fightin'...oh fightin'

Fightin' just to stay alive

I've been fightin'...yeah fightin'

Fightin' to get from

Four o'clock to five.

I've been fightin'...oh fightin'

Fightin' just to stay alive

I've been fightin'...yeah fightin'

Fightin' to get from

Four o'clock to five.

I've been fightin'...oh fightin'

Fightin' just to stay alive

I've been fightin'...yeah fightin'

Fightin' to get from

Four o'clock to five.
