lyrics

He was born in Louisville in nineteen fourty two
he was just a young boy when he started to
fight in a ring, fighting to be a king
nobody has ever moved so free
Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee.

He won the olympic gold in nineteen sixty
and he was the champion of the world
just at twenty two. A new star was born
when Sony Liston kissed the floor
everybody knew he was the king
Foat like a butterfly sting like a bee

But in the USA, the colour of your skin
it could be a chain, it could be a sin
Yeah, he had to fight, for civil rights
and for equality, between blacks and whites

He said “no” to their stupid war
so they stole his throne,
and they tried to break his heart.
He had to wait, ten very long years but he won back again,
he was the greatest in history
Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee
Hey man, listen to me:
I'm gonna float like a butterfly and sting like a bee
