"Knock 'Em Down" lyrics
I'm gonna knock 'em down
Mama told me knock 'em down
It starts with one, step
There's no telling where the wind goes next
Yeah dumb luck is a losing bet
I said remember that
The first cut's the deepest
First hill's the steepest
Won't let my weakness tear me to pieces
Writing my story in blood, sweat and tears
It all starts here
Stop, wave, nice to know ya
When they asked me to sell my soul
I'd rather be in control and lose
Running this town in my own damn shoes
Don't just stare
Come on over, no need to be scared
Unaffected by the weight we bear
Competition y'all better beware
I'm gonna knock 'em down, (Whoa-oh)
Mama told me knock 'em down, (Whoa oh-oh-oh)
I'm gonna line 'em up and knock 'em down (Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
We're just some regular folk
Been run down and broke
But we're taking this world by storm
And we're just gettin' warm
Like Cash and Kravitz and all five Jacksons
Watch me smash this mic with passion
Light my fuse and watch me go
Can't be a star if you don't explode
And when I pick up the pace
No brakes
Everybody gonna see did face
You know I'm next in line
So you better not take your time
I'm gonna knock 'em down, (Whoa-oh)
Mama told me knock 'em down, (Whoa oh-oh-oh)
I'm gonna line 'em up and knock 'em down (Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
I'm gonna knock 'em down, (Whoa-oh)
Mama told me knock 'em down, (Whoa oh-oh-oh)
I'm gonna line 'em up and knock 'em down (Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
Now I'm walkin' through the valley not shadow of doubt
It ain't a comeback baby, but I'm back at it now
Riding the same wavelength from main
Stage to basement
Hand me a mic and I'll one-two
Knock em (what what!)
Knock em (what what!)
Let the dogs out (Yeah, Woof Woof Woof)
Cause it's never too late to take the first step to greatness
Now take this, and knock 'em down!
(Mama told me knock 'em down)
Whoa, oh oh oh
Knock 'em down, (knock em down)
Mama told me knock 'em down (Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
I'm gonna line 'em up and knock 'em down (Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
I'm gonna knock 'em down, (Whoa-oh)
Mama told me knock 'em down
I'm gonna line 'em up and knock 'em down (Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
Mama told me knock 'em down
It starts with one, step
There's no telling where the wind goes next
Yeah dumb luck is a losing bet
I said remember that
The first cut's the deepest
First hill's the steepest
Won't let my weakness tear me to pieces
Writing my story in blood, sweat and tears
It all starts here
Stop, wave, nice to know ya
When they asked me to sell my soul
I'd rather be in control and lose
Running this town in my own damn shoes
Don't just stare
Come on over, no need to be scared
Unaffected by the weight we bear
Competition y'all better beware
I'm gonna knock 'em down, (Whoa-oh)
Mama told me knock 'em down, (Whoa oh-oh-oh)
I'm gonna line 'em up and knock 'em down (Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
We're just some regular folk
Been run down and broke
But we're taking this world by storm
And we're just gettin' warm

I'm gonna knock 'em down, (Whoa-oh)
Mama told me knock 'em down
I'm gonna line 'em up and knock 'em down (Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
