I am so weak and I'm so tired It's hard for me to Find enough strength to Feed the fires That fuel my ego And consequently all my pride Has all but died Which leaves me Down on my knees Back to the place I Should have started from CHORUS: Been beat up Been broken down Nowhere but up When you're face down On the ground I'm in last place If I place at all But there's hope for this underdog! That's the way, uh huh, we like it! That's the way, uh huh, we like it! You can call me the underdog I'm in this race to win a prize The odds against me The world has plans for my demise What they don't see is That a winner is not judged By his small size But by the Substitute he picks to Run the race And mine's already won CHORUS Underdog I wince every time I see the word Especially in connection with Jesus Yet as I read the birth stories... I've been beat up I've been broken down No where to go When you're face down On the ground I'm in last place If I place at all But there's hope for this underdog! That's the way, uh huh, we like it! That's the way, uh huh, we like it! That's the way, uh huh, we like it! That's the way, uh huh, we like it! That's the way, that's the way, that's the way, that's the way we like it!
