The Undercard Songtext
von John Wesley Harding

Our evening′s almost over
And it hasn't yet begun
The main event is happening elsewhere
When I was unbeaten
Only you would try
Now it′s just like neither of us care


Someone offered money
If I'd go down in the third
They said we could consider it a loan
I turned towards the ring
Like I hadn't even heard
But now I wish I′d never even known
We′re not the stars
We're on the undercard
There′s a bigger fight than you and me
Somewhere in this town
I know it's hard
To be on the undercard
When you wanna fight the heavyweight crown

Come home with me
We′ll watch the fight on TV
Wonder if we would have done the same
We're on ropes
We′re cut but full of hope
Waiting for the bill to ring again

We're not the stars
We're on the undercard
There′s a bigger fight than you and me
Somewhere in this town
I know it′s hard
To be on the undercard
When you wanna fight the heavyweight crown
