Hit Below The Belt
Written by: Doug Scharley
Lyrics © D. R. Scharley Consulting Inc.
You're always looking for an edge
You like me standing on the ledge
That's the dirty way you play this game
An open shot you've never missed
A lower form does not exist
You've never once shown any shame
I'll never sink to your level
I'll never deal with your devil
Life is pretty hot the way it is
When the bell rings I'll be swinging
At the mud that you'll be slinging
And that's simply just the way it is
(Chorus)
I played what's dealt
You don't care how I felt
You like to hit below
Hit below the belt
Your words can melt
You don't care how I felt
You like to hit below
Hit below the belt
You better know I plan to win
And I have got the thickest skin
So you'll have to use your sharpest arrows
You have to know I will not lose
Even if I bend or bruise
With every minute your window narrows
So once again you bring the fight
And now you use all of your might
This time you strike me with a low blow
It's clear I never stood a chance
When you floored me with romance
They could see it plainly from the back row
(Chorus)
I played what's dealt
You don't care how I felt
You like to hit below
Hit below the belt
Your words can melt
You don't care how I felt
You like to hit below
Hit below the belt
You're always looking for an edge
You like me standing on the ledge
That's the dirty way you play this game
An open shot you've never missed
A lower form does not exist
You've never once shown any shame
I'll never sink to your level
I'll never deal with your devil
Life is pretty hot the way it is
When the bell rings I'll be swinging
At the mud that you'll be slinging
And that's simply just the way it is
(Chorus)
I played what's dealt
You don't care how I felt
You like to hit below
Hit below the belt
Your words can melt
You don't care how I felt
You like to hit below
Hit below the belt
You better know I plan to win
And I have got the thickest skin
So you'll have to use your sharpest arrows
You have to know I will not lose
Even if I bend or bruise
With every minute your window narrows
So once again you bring the fight
And now you use all of your might
This time you strike me with a low blow
It's clear I never stood a chance
When you floored me with romance
They could see it plainly from the back row
(Chorus)
I played what's dealt
You don't care how I felt
You like to hit below
Hit below the belt
Your words can melt
You don't care how I felt
You like to hit below
Hit below the belt
