The lights are spinnin'
I gotta get myself up off the floor
My head is ringin'
Bet they think I can't take too much more
The crowd is howlin'
Like the ocean's pounding roar
My legs are goin' out
Someone up there don't like me
Now my right and my left will decide
'Cause they're done with this bum takin' dives
Now my eyes may be swollen with right hooks and tears
But I see salvation tonight
In a left and a right
Called me a kid, champ or lefty
A bowery kid to the core
Fast cars and hipster movie stars
I ain't got none of that anymore
Now I'm down in the seventh
In the eighth my ribs are sore
In the ninth I'm staggerin'
Someone up there don't like me
It's a one-way ticket
Smart money's showin' me the door
Backed on the ropes now
Someone up there don't like me anymore
When the crowd goes silent
One thing that I know for sure
Knock me down one time
I'll be comin' back for more
Royal Crown Revue is an American band formed in Los Angeles in 1989. Although often associated with the Swing Revival movement, their musical style transcends genres, blending influences of rockabilly, punk, jazz, blues and soul. Among their most representative songs are "Solitary Man" (a cover of Neil Diamond), "The Contender" and "Walking Like Brando". The band has achieved great success on the Vans Warped Tour, sharing the stage with artists like the B-52's and the Pretenders. They have also participated in major American jazz festivals. In 2010 they even recorded a special episode of "Gene Simmons Family Jewels", with Gene Simmons taking the reins of the band. Royal Crown Revue was founded by Eddie Nichols and Mando Dorame, passionate about roots music. Initially, the lineup included brothers Mark and Adam Stern, coming from the punk band Youth Brigade. After several tours with Youth Brigade, the Sterns left the band in the mid-90s. Today Royal Crown Revue is led by Eddie Nichols, Mando Dorame (tenor saxophone, arranger and composer), Scott Steen (trumpet) and Daniel Glass (drums). The band continues to attract large crowds in Australia, Europe and the United States.
