put your money on The Kid tonight
The Kid's gloved up, and he's come to fight
don't worry where the money's smart
don't you bet against the heart
swear The Kid won't disappoint
he just might shock this joint
trust your heart
do what's right
put your money on The Kid tonight
they say The Kid ain't a kid no more
don't understand what he's fighting for
when they step up to place their bet
they say The Kid's got nothing left
but they for got the pride within
they forgot that he's got to win
street say's he won't , but he just might
put your money on The Kid tonight
for everyone who hates the life they live
for everyone who keeps their heart well hid
for everyone who thought
they'd reach the top but never did
put your money on The Kid
Win or lose, wrong or right
Kid's making everyone richer tonight
one truth will be found
you ain't out because you're down
and when the smoke has cleared the air
who'll be standing there?
trust your heart
and do what's right
put your money on The Kid tonight
