Underdog (1971) Songtext
von Giorgio Moroder

Being in this place for just a short time
Up from the country to have a good time
In the city
Every job he takes he′s used and abused
By boss men who want him to lick their shoes
In the city

Underdog, underdog
You're an underdog
And that′s the way, that's the way you're gonna stay
Underdog, underdog
You′re an underdog
And that′s the way, that's the way you′re gonna stay

Every girl he's met′s got him so upset
Treating him bad with no sign of regret
They don't care
So he went to a brothel to pay for love
The whores looked at him and started to laugh
So unfair


Underdog, underdog
You′re an underdog
And that's the way, that's the way you′re gonna stay
Underdog, underdog
You′re an underdog
And that's the way, that′s the way you're gonna stay

Kick him to the floor
Then you shut the door
Underdog

I must confess as it′s for the best
I'm the underdog that was in this mess
Before
But now I see where I′ve been going wrong
So I've changed into someone strong
For sure

Underdog, underdog
That was me
Now I've changed my ways, you see
For sure
Underdog, underdog


What a joke
I was dreaming ′til I woke
That′s all
Underdog, underdog
That was me
Now I've changed my ways, you see
For sure

Underdog, underdog
That was me
Now I′ve changed my ways, you see
For sure
Underdog, underdog

What a joke
I was dreaming 'til I woke
That′s all
Underdog, underdog
That was me
Now I've changed my ways, you see
For sure
