54 Knockouts

[Verse 1]
Remember that kid? They made him a star
Down in El Monte he got pretty far
Lefty Zamora, that was his name
They put him in the ring and they took away his fame

[Pre-Chorus]
He signed on the line, they took him to lunch
That kid could rumble, he could take a punch

[Chorus]
He got fifty-four knockouts and just one loss
Fifty-four knockouts and just one loss
He got fifty-four knockouts and just one loss
Fifty-four knockouts and just one loss

[Post-Chorus]
That kid could rumble, but he payed the cost
He got fifty-four knockouts and just one loss

[Verse 2]
He was a gold-toothed playboy with too many wives
Too many cars and not enough lives
He lay on the canvas, caught in flurry
They took all his money then ran in a hurry

[Pre-Chorus]
He signed on the line, they took him to lunch
That kid could rumble, he could take a punch

[Chorus]
He got fifty-four knockouts and just one loss
Fifty-four knockouts and just one loss
He got fifty-four knockouts and just one loss
Fifty-four knockouts and just one loss

[Post-Chorus]
That kid could rumble, but he payed the cost
He got fifty-four knockouts and just one loss

[Verse 3]
Late one night by the river bed
A shot rang out and they left him for dead
A desperate kid with blood on his face
He left his mark on the human race

[Pre-Chorus]
In the final round, nobody wins
That's the price you pay, it's wage of sin

[Chorus]
Fifty-four knockouts and just one loss
Fifty-four knockouts and just one loss
He got fifty-four knockouts and just one loss
Fifty-four knockouts and just one loss

[Post-Chorus]
That kid could rumble, but he payed the cost
He got fifty-four knockouts and just one loss

[Outro]
Fifty-four knockouts
Fifty-four knockouts
Fifty-four knockouts
Fifty-four knockouts and just one loss
