It's just another round, just another fight
They try to knock me down, but you know I'm still alright
And I know down inside, that I'm not like other men
So I pick myself up, and I'm back on my feet again
And I swear, I'm gonna go the distance, oh yeah

So many times, I been down there on the ground
But I gather up my strength and I go another round
So many times I just wanna shout
You may knock me down, but you still ain't knocked me out
Cos I swear, I swear I'm gonna go the distance, yes I am

Now I may be bleeding, but I'm on my feet
I may be beaten up, but still I ain't been beat
I may stumble and fall, and be tired as hell

But I'm determined to be standing, when they ring the final bell
Cos I swear, I wanna go the distance, yes I'am
Yes I swear, I'm gonna go the distance
I'm going all the way with it
I ain't gonna let nobody get me down
I'm gonna go the distance baby
