Lyrics

First string got hit in practice, he didn’t land quite right
Second string, couldn’t make the grades to play that Friday night
So the kid they said was way too small to even make the team
Was starting in the biggest game that school had ever seen
His hands were cold, the huddle broke, as he called that final play
So he dropped back, he threw that pass, that won that game
Number 48
Sometimes the underdog comes through
Sometimes the long-shot beats the odds
Sometimes it ain’t the dog in the fight, it’s the fight in the dog
Sometimes the one we counted out
Rises up in the moment of truth
Sometimes the underdog comes through
After years of trying, her luck was turning ‘round
She finally saw that beating heart right there on ultrasound
When he got sick the doctors said he wouldn’t make it through the night
But when the morning came around that little baby cried
Against all odds, he never stopped, when life got in the way
And just last week, she heard him speak on that high school stage
Graduation day
I could have heard them tellin me my dreams were crazy
I could have heard them tellin me to move on
But if I listened you would have never heard this song
Sometimes the underdog comes through
Sometimes the long-shot beats the odds
Sometimes it ain’t the dog in the fight, it’s the fight in the dog
Sometimes the one we counted out
Rises up in the moment of truth
Sometimes the underdog comes through
