It was more than just any old Friday night fight With your mean left hook and my roundhouse right We were both goin´ for the heavyweight crown TKO in the very first round
Thought you were gettin´ the best of me Floatin´ like a butterfly, stingin´ like a bee Thought a good fight would get it out of our system But we walked away with a split decision
Well, when we first met, you were a real knockout I was head over heels, I was down for the count But gettin´ along got harder and harder ´Til we were nothin´ more than sparrin´ partners
I did my best to roll with the punches You wore me out with fakin´ and a-duckin´ Almost put me outta comission But we walked away with a split decision
Split decision Split decision
Everbody losin´ and nobody winnin´ Just too tough, I had enough Nobody oughta hafta fight for love We took a split decision
