"Clay comes out to meet Liston, and Liston starts to retreat
If Liston goes back an inch further, he'll end up in the ringside seat
Clay swings with his left, Clay swings with his right
Look at young Cassius carry the fight
Liston keeps backing, but there's not enough room
It's a matter of time before Clay drops the boom
Now Liston disappears from the view, the crowd is getting frantic
But our radar-station has picked him up, he's somewheres over the atlantic
Liston is over the horizon, and the ref's wants him found
But he can't start counting until Sonny comes down.
Who would've thought when they came to the fight
That they would witness the launching of a human satellite?
The crowd did not dream when they put down their money
That they would witness the total eclipse of the Sonny"
total eclipse of the Sonny? I love it!!! This thread rocks. Ali rocks!!! Please...does anyone else have any quotes you want to share with the rest of us? It's like a much needed comedic fix. I need more, more, MORE!
