lyrics

The night that Manny hit the floor
There was a woman at my door
With auburn skin and bourbon eyes
She loosed the fetter of my pride
And she brought me to the other side
When Manny hit the floor

The night that Manny took the hit
Caused me to reminisce a bit
Of Simon's boxer in '68
When the world was filled with bitter hate
And it seems that not so much has changed
When Manny took the hit

The night that Manny lost the fight
I was sick inside my head all night
I was working late cause I was poor
To try and make my plight no more
To win a round and even the score
When Manny lost the fight
