“I EARNED IT!” Lyrics by Mick Foley

Promos

1995

Cactus Jack: "Terry Funk, there is one word you used to describe me that I can't seem to get out of my head. Charlatan. And I don't even know what it means but I'm pretty sure it's not someone who lives in North Carolina. But I got a decent idea. I think, Terry Funk, you're out there questioning my credentials. I'm not exactly Phil Donahue but there are a couple of things that I'm a little sensitive about. One of them is my family. The other one is my claim to legitimacy in this great sport and you've questioned them both. Well, Terry Funk, you're out there saying "Hey, I don't need a goofy name like Cactus Jack. What is a Cactus Jack?" You use your full name. Well, anyone who watches this show -- I'm not opening any secrets --
My name is Mick Foley. I was born Michael F. Foley, Bloomington, Indiana and I don't even know what the hell New Mexico looks like. But the name kinda fit and I'm stuck with it for better or worse so you fans, you wanna chant "Mickey, Mickey" you go ahead. You want to chant "Cactus Jack", go ahead because I call myself Cactus Jack for one reason .... I EARNED IT!!"
