Lyrics
Lina Mekane here with a channel six exclusive A surprise challenger has been found to face off against Apollo Creed in his January first championship bout And he is none other than Philadelphia's own, Rocky Balboa Rocky! How'd you get that name? The Italian stallion? Oh, I thought it up myself It rhymes, you see? Italian and stallion Do you have anything derogatory to say about Apollo Creed? Derogatory? Absolutely. He's the greatest One of us Is talking to the cameras One of us Is waving to the crowd One of us This guy from out of nowhere Is gonna get to go where None of us ain't allowed One of us! Arеn't you a little ashamed, Apollo, of taking on an underdog who has absolutеly no chance at defeating you? Ashamed? Hell no, this is America, girl, the land of opportunity Plus, my main man Rocky here, he's I-talian So, what does that mean? It means, that if he can't fight, he could probably cook up a great ravioli! Always been told that I'd never amount And I always believed they was right All of my life, I've been down for the count Up until tonight (tonight...) ...One of us Is standing up for Philly One of us That Philly won't forget One of us Is starting up so humble Will he rise or will he crumble? Come place your bet! Nobody gets a shot like this Things never work out fair! But here is the living proof, there's a prayer Even for the losers, even for the bums Now and then, a miracle comes To one of us (Rocky, fight from the heart) One of us (Rocky, fight from the heart) One of us! Yo! Adrian! Rocky!
