Homer Steinweiss - Tomato Can lyrics

[Verse 1] Did anybody hear? The kid from Bakersfield They told him when to fall And how to fake and roll But the kid could really fight, it wasn't right [Chorus] Did anybody see? A crowd of savage men Try to make a fool of him And pay him not to win His heart was in the ring He'd fight most anything Lose it all just to win it back again Tomato Can [Verse 2] They hold him in their hands And cheer him from the stands He fights for all the folks Who live against the ropes The need for him, to bleed for them is real [Chorus] Did anybody see? A crowd of savage men Try to make a fool of him And pay him not to win His heart was in the ring He'd fight most anything Lose it all just to win it back again Tomato Can [Bridge] Did anybody hear? The kid from Bakersfield He laid down in the ring All the lights went dim The need for him, to bleed for them was true [Chorus] Did anybody see? A crowd of savage men Try to make a fool of him And pay him not to win His heart was in the ring He'd fight most anything Lose it all just to win it back again Lose it all just to win it back again Tomato Can
