Lyrics for I Ain't Been Licked - 12" Version

Roll down the gangway So they'll see that it's me I know they'll wonder about my recovery Yes, I lost a love that promised happiness What my heart wouldn't accept Put me to the test They keep on holding me down But I rise, yes, it can be done Keep a holding me down But I rise, they can't make me run Holding me down But I rise, got my second wind Keep on holding me down I rise, tell 'em I'm back again Just say, I ain't been licked (no, no, no) I ain't been licked I ain't been licked Tell 'em for me, I ain't been licked Like outta nowhere My whole world fell apart 'Til this day, no one knows What I felt in my heart All those precious things Inside me, tried to steal Hands I thought would help Pushed me over the hill Keep on holding me down But I rise, yes, it can be done Keep on holding me down But I rise, they can't make me run Keep on holding me down But I rise, got my second wind Keep on holding me down But I rise, tell 'em I'm back again Just say, I ain't been licked (I ain't been licked, no, no) I ain't been licked I ain't been licked Tell 'em for me, I ain't been licked Keep on holding me down But I rise, just to start again Rise, show 'em that I can Rise, found a brand-new dream Rise, just to prove one thing Just say, I ain't been licked (no, no, no) I ain't been licked I ain't been licked Tell 'em for me (I ain't been licked) I want the world to see I ain't been licked Although my love is gone I ain't been licked Somehow, I carry on I ain't been licked I'll find the strength somehow I ain't been licked I think I'm ready now I ain't been licked (I ain't been licked, I ain't been licked) I ain't been licked I ain't been licked, no, no I ain't been licked (ooh-ah, yeah, yeah) I ain't been licked (ooh-whoa, ooh-whoa) I ain't been licked (oh no, my love is gone) I ain't been licked (somehow, somehow, I carry on) I ain't been licked (I find the way somehow, somehow) I ain't been licked (I think I've had enough) I ain't been licked (I ain't been licked, I ain't been licked, no, no) I ain't been licked (no oh, no oh) I ain't been licked (ooh, yeah, yeah, yeah) I ain't been licked (I ain't been licked, I ain't been licked, no, no) I ain't been licked (tell 'em for me) I ain't been licked (I'm ready, I'm ready now) I ain't been licked (I ain't been licked, I ain't been licked, no, no) I ain't been licked (I ain't been licked, no, no, no, no...) I ain't been licked (np, no, no...)
