Now, ladies and gentlemen, from Louisville, Kentucky.
-
Wearing black tie Mr. Cassius Marcellus Clay.
-
His classic poem: I am The Greatest.
-
This kid's got a left;
-
this kid's got a right,
-
If he hit you once, you're asleep for the night.
-
This kid fights great;
-
he’s got speed and endurance
-
but if you sign to fight him, increase your insurance.
-
I am the greatest!
-
I told ya.
-
I am the real champion! I am the greatest!
-
The greatest of all time.
-
And as you lie on the floor while the ref counts ten,
-
You’ll pray that you won’t have to fight me again.
-
He is the greatest!
-
The greatest of all time.
-
This brash young boxer is something to see
-
And the heavyweight championship is his des-tin-y.
-
I am gonna Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee
-
he can’t hit what he can he see.
-
Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee.
-
I am gonna Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee
-
he can’t hit what he can he see.
-
Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee.
-
I’ve wrestled with alligators,
-
I’ve tussled with a whale.
-
I done handcuffed lightning
-
And throw thunder in jail.
-
That’s bad!
-
When I say two that’s never third!
-
When I say three don’t get against me!
-
I am a man of my word.
-
The man is in cover, I will show you how may I have how you gonna be.
-
Imma show you how may I have.
-
This brash young boxer is something to see
-
And the heavyweight championship is his des-tin-y.
-
I am gonna Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee
-
he can’t hit what he can he see.
-
Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee.
-
I am gonna Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee he can’t hit what he can he see.
-
Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee.
