The Hand Of John L. Sullivan

You may be tough, but you'll never knock him down
He is a towering god but not our sacred cow
He maybe caught, but never on the ropes
He is a diamond rough in every man poor man's hope
He was always glad to meet ya, he's the champion of the people
The first and last name ever to be spoke

Now I am the man with the plan to shake the hand of John L. Sullivan
A fighter till the end
Legend he will be
And if any man should ask, if any man could carry
I am the man with the plan to shake the hand of John L. Sullivan

The hand of glove and nothing more shall be
He is the struggle in this shame for all to see
He was always glad to meet ye, he's the champion of the people
The first and last name ever to be spoke

Now I am the man with the plan to shake the hand of John L. Sullivan
A fighter till the end
Legend he will be
And if any man should ask, if any man could carry
I am the man with the plan to shake the hand of John L. Sullivan, ya!

Hm, come gather yourself, drink to your health
It's the one thing that money can't buy
But remember the loss to the loved ones we all leave behind
So pass the glass over, Sullivan just ordered
The glory days have returned
And let's live this good life, until the last goodbye

Oh, oh oh oh
Oh, oh oh oh

You may be tough, but you'll never knock him down
He is a towering god but not our sacred cow
He was always glad to meet ye, he's the champion of the people
The first and last name ever to be spoke

Now I am the man with the plan to shake the hand of John L. Sullivan
A fighter till the end
Legend he will be
And if any man should ask, if any man could carry
I am the man with the plan to shake the hand of John L. Sullivan

I am the man with the plan to shake the hand of John L. Sullivan
A fighter till the end
Legend he will be
And if any man should ask, Jim Casey is my name
Now I am the man with the plan to shake the hand of John L. Sullivan
