Styx - Great White Hope слова песни
Written by James Young
Lead Vocals by James Young
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
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
