Underdog Lyrics by The Script

Sunsets & Full Moons

2019

[Chorus]
Just when you think I've given up, I start to fight
When you think I’ve had enough, I start to bite
I'm gonna prove the whole world wrong tonight
This is for the underdog, underdog
You can count me out, but watch me rise
I've been going up against it all my life
I’m gonna prove the whole world wrong tonight
This is for the underdog, underdog (Yeah)

[Verse 1]
This is for the lost, the left out, the looked over
The ones who fight wars, the true soldiers
For the ones who keep marchin' on
This is for the highs, that our eyes could not believe in
The woes, the low blows, we won't give in, no
For the ones who keep holdin' on (Keep holdin' on)

[Pre-Chorus]
So remember what I told you
It ain't over till it's over

[Chorus]
Just when you think I've given up, I start to fight
When you think I’ve had enough, I start to bite
I’m gonna prove the whole world wrong tonight
This is for the underdog, underdog
You can count me out, but watch me rise
I've been going up against it all my life
I’m gonna prove the whole world wrong tonight
This is for the underdog, underdog (Yeah)

[Post-Chorus]
This is for the underdog, underdog

[Verse 2]
This is for the ones who jump high to touch heaven
The ones who must try, the true legends
They got something worth fightin' for (Fightin' for)
This is for the ones who dig deep, the prize winnin'
The need to succeed and keep givin’
Yeah, always getting up off the floor (Get up, get up, get up)

[Pre-Chorus]
So remember what I told you
It ain't over till it's over

[Chorus]
Just when you think I've given up, I start to fight
When you think I've had enough, I start to bite
I'm gonna prove the whole world wrong tonight
This is for the underdog, underdog
You can count me out, but watch me rise
I've been going up against it all my life
I'm gonna prove the whole world wrong tonight
This is for the underdog, underdog (Yeah)

[Post-Chorus]
Yeah
This is for the underdog, underdog (Yeah)
This is for the underdog, underdog (Yeah)

[Bridge]
The only one to wanna walk the walk, talk the talk
Oh, let's hear it for the underdog
The only one against the odds to reach the top
Oh, let's hear it for the underdog
The only one to walk the walk, talk the talk
Oh, let's hear it for the underdog
The only one against the odds
Let's hear it for the underdog, underdog
Soon to be top dog

[Outro]
This is for the underdog, underdog (Yeah)
This is for the underdog, underdog (Yeah)
Just when you think I've given up, I start to fight
When you think I've had enough, I start to bite
I'm gonna prove the whole world wrong tonight
This is for the underdog, underdog
