Lyrics
Listen up, people Apollo is having a vision! I see a life size lady liberty You're digging it? We're digging it I see an Uncle Sam, and he's black like me! Are you digging it? I'm.. digging it? We find a white local fighter and I'll be all his If that ain't American, what is? Red white and blue and doin' this Patriotic! (Patriotic!) I see Apollo shirts and baseball caps You digging it? We're digging it And every bumper sticker's for the hometown saps Are you digging it? Digging it! I'm seein' star-spangled banners and my girls in tights Sequins and fireworks and hot lights! A first in the history of fights Patriotic (patriotic) This fight should've put me right up at the best Joe Louis and Fraisеr and all of the rest I ain't gettin' youngеr, ain't got the time To fight some bum who's past his prime But we got the venue We got the bout And your damned opponent is chickenin' out Fight is on no matter what Now, who in the hell in Philly do we got? Billy Snow? Rhymes with no! Big Chuck Krull? Too old, too dull Dipper Riley’s ideal Dipper? Get real! But here we got a name with some poster appeal "The Italian stallion!" Wrap it in a flag, make the people scream! Someone'll be gettin' the American dream Mister down 'n out versus mister slick! It's gonna be patriotic! I didn't get where I got to by being dumb Rocky Balboa Here I come! That's patriotic (patriotic) Ooh, patriotic (patriotic) Apollo Creed meets the Italian stallion! Sh*t, sounds like a damn monster movie Uh-huh
