lyrics

You wouldn't think to look at me
But I fought the champ in 53
Locarno Ballroom away in town
It's gone now though, they pulled it down
I was big and strong back then you see
You wouldn't think to look at me

See this silver scar above my eye?
Well I got it in the 5th
Son, I tried to stay up on my feet
But they stopped it in the 6th
I'd caught him on the jaw
And I'd hurt him I could see
If I'd had one round more
It could have turned out differently
I almost was someone
I almost was someone
But you wouldn't think
To look at me
