On the 17th day in Nevada rain The countdown of truth began The stage was set, a heavyweight test Both challengers hand to hand The first bell, rang out Both were set to knock each other down Fitzsimmons cried out, I'll give you my best And I'll choke before you win The champion smiled, a Yankee giant, he stood a foot above his chin One blow, he was thrown, head spinning from the thud against the floor Now the sweat was pouring, hearts were pounding As a stalemate quickly locked They ducked and dived, jabbed and weaved As the bell rang time to stop One rest, one breath then back again to wear each other down Such a brawling battle was a sobering sight, with the sound of 14 bells and their ribs were kicked, eyes were split, as our hero hit hard as hell each blow it was thrown, no mercy in the path of every swing then breaking from the corner, you could see there was a winner and the people they were screaming As he knocked him to the ground, waited for the countdown From left to right hook, deep in the centre Well he broke with a deadening thud And he moved away silent, swayed and stuttered And he wiped away the streaks of blood One fall, one roar then he's panting hard to stay their upright Then cheering from the corner, you could see there was a winner and the people they were screaming As he knocked him to the ground Waited for the countdown Knocked on the ground They fought like lions, stubborn in the ring, both men did fiercely stand 2 hours 6 minutes, all to the finish, in the might of a Cornish man One win and he grins, raised his weary arms into the crowd Then out of every corner, it was clear there was a winner and the people they were screaming As he listened to the sound He had knocked the giant down
