Underdog lyrics

[Verse 1]
Write me a song
Play it for all my friends
They're blown away
Say "you should get out of here kid"
So I pack up my car
Drive that thing straight to Brooklyn
Start me a band
Go in on a rehearsal space

[Chorus]
Everybody loves the underdog
Everybody loves the underdog

[Verse 2]
Rent is so high
That I have to ask my mom for cash
She doesn't mind
Paying for Bedford-Stuyvesant
Happy to see
Her boy living out his dreams
I'm finally free
All my neighbors look just like me

[Chorus]
Everybody loves the underdog
Everybody loves the underdog
Hairstyles change
I finished my pilgrimage
Found me a mate
They say the city's no place for kids
So I pack up my car
Drive back to Cincinnati
Everything's changed
It's not as sh*tty as it used to be

[Chorus]
Everybody loves the underdog
Everybody loves the underdog

[Bridge]
Everybody loves the underdog
Everybody loves a sucker
And why can't I have a new life
Somewhere more exciting than my own

[Chorus]
Everybody loves the underdog
Everybody loves the underdog

[Chorus] x 3
