Zevon Warren - Boom Boom Mancini lyrics

rate me

Hurry home early -- hurry on home

Boom Boom Mancini's fighting Bobby Chacon

Hurry home early -- hurry on home

Boom Boom Mancini's fighting Bobby Chacon

>From Youngstown, Ohio, Ray "Boom Boom" Mancini

A lightweight contender, like father like son

He fought for the title with Frias in Vegas

And he put him away in round number one

Hurry home early -- hurry on home

Boom Boom Mancini's fighting Bobby Chacon

Hurry home early -- hurry on home

Boom Boom Mancini's fighting Bobby Chacon

When Alexis Arguello gave Boom Boom a beating

Seven weeks later he was back in the ring

Some have the speed and the right combinations

If you can't take the punches, it don't mean a thing

Hurry home early -- hurry on home

Boom Boom Mancini's fighting Bobby Chacon

Hurry home early -- hurry on home

Boom Boom Mancini's fighting Bobby Chacon

When they asked him who was responsible

For the death of Du Koo Kim

He said, "Some one should have stopped the fight

And told me it was him."

They made hypocrite judgements after the fact

But the name of the game is be hit and hit back

Hurry home early -- hurry on home

Boom Boom Mancini's fighting Bobby Chacon

Hurry home early -- hurry on home

Boom Boom Mancini's fighting Bobby Chacon
