You're the fighter you've got the fire br The spirit of a warrior, the champion's heart br You fight for your life because the fighter never quits br You make the most of the hand you're dealt br Because the quitter never wins br br No! br br You were born to box in a city that's seen their share br Mello, Ryan, Carney, among them your photo proudly hangs there br Above the bar in the Gaelic Club br They tell the story of a throwback br With the heart of a lion br They salute your glory br br It's another murderous night br Another left hook from hell br A bloody war on the boardwalk br And the kid from Lowell rises to the bell br br CHORUS: br Micky br It's a warrior's code br Micky br He's got the warrior's soul br br [CHORUS]
