Underdog

Lyrics

Hey dig!
 I know how it feels to expect to get a fair shake
 But they won't let you forget
 That you're the underdog and you've got to be twice as good (yeah yeah)
 Even if you're never right
 They get uptight when you get too bright
 Or you might start thinking too much, yeah (yeah yeah)
 I know how it feels when you know you're real
 But every other time
 You get up and get a raw deal, yeah (yeah yeah)
 Say I'm the underdog
 I say I'm the underdog
 Say I'm the underdog
 I'm the underdog
 ♪
 ♪
 I know how it feels to get demoted
 When it comes time you got promoted
 But you might be movin' up too fast, yeah (yeah yeah)
 If you ever love somebody of a different set
 I bet the set didn't let you forget
 That it just don't go like that (yeah yeah)
 I know how it feels
 For people to stop, turn around and stare
 Signifiying them there, ah low rate, low rate me, yeah (yeah yeah)
 I don't mind, I'm the underdog
 No I can handle it I'm the underdog
 I'm the underdog, yeah
 Underdog
 ♪
 Say I know how it feels to be played upon
 See you at the party
 But you're really, you're really all alone
 They just underestimate me (yeah yeah)
 I know how it feels when you're feelin' down
 And you wanna come up but you realize
 You're in the wrong part of town, yeah (yeah yeah)
 I know how it feels to have to go along
 With people you don't even know
 Simply because there happens to be
 A whole lot more of them, yeah (yeah yeah)
 Say I'm the underdog
 I'm the underdog
 I don't mind 'cause I can handle it
 Underdog, It's gonna be alright
 I'm the underdog (ay, ay)
