lyrics

I am the faint voice
I’m the bark beneath the wind
I ain’t the best choice
But you root for me to win
I am the school kid
Amidst the highschool beauty queen
I ain’t good lookin’
But I know just what she needs
‘Cause I learned how to stand my ground
As the underdog

In North Virginia
Just outside the D.C. lines
Those folks will kill ya
With noses pointed at the sky
Who barks the loudest
Who woos the crowds with stunning speech
Who stands the proudest
Who feeds the belly of the beast
Oh, I learned how to stand my ground
As the underdog

Well, I’ve been to Nashville
And I’ve seen how those boys play
And they got more skill
Then I’ll ever have some day
But I’ll take the challenge
In fact I just might pick the fight
They got the talent
But I’ve gotten used to bleeding all my life
‘Cause I learned how to stand my ground
As the underdog

Yeah I’m the underdog
We’re the underdogs
Oh I’m the underdog, yeah
We’re the underdogs

So watch us right here
Right here on this tavern stage
It’s been some long years
And we’re hardly getting paid
But I ain’t crying
Oh no, I’ve seen enough of that
Knock me down trying
‘Cause I like the view upon my back
‘Cause I learned how to stand my ground
Sing it loud, let’s stand our ground
‘Cause we’ve learned how to stand our ground
As the underdogs
