Training Montage 2 / Eye Of The Tiger (Rocky Broadway Cast Recording)

Rising up
Back on the street
Took his time, took his chances
Went the distance, now he's back on his feet
Just a man and his will to survive

This ain't about footwork
It's about balance
When you can move without breaking the string
You have balance
And then Creed's gonna find out
He's fighting a very dangerous man

So many times
It happens too fast
You trade your passion for glory
Dance! Dammit, kid, dance!
Don't lose your grip on the dreams of the past
You must fight just to keep them alive

It's the eye of the tiger
It's the thrill of the fight
Rising up to the challenge of our rival
As the last known survivor stalks his prey in the night
I'll be watching him go with the eye of the tiger

Face to face
Feeling the heat
Hanging tough, staying hungry
They stacked the odds for a certain defeat
Gotta kill for the skill to survive

And another thing, Rock
No more makin' it with that girlfriend of yours until after the fight
Remember, kid
Women weaken legs!

It's the eye of the tiger, it's the thrill of the fight
Rising up to the challenge of a rival
And the last known survivor stalks his prey in the night
And he's watching us all (watching us all)

That feel better?
Yeah, thanks
I'm just sore
Already did fifteen miles this morning
You gotta be tired
You wanna go lie down on my bed for a little while?
No, I just wanna catch my breath
You sure?
Hey! There's no foolin' around during training
I gotta stay strong
All right
I'll go make you some eggs
Yo, Adrian, I'm sorry
Are you mad at me?

You got a scrunched-up shoulder and an achin' neck
You're like some beat-up car that's had a minor wreck
I think I've gotta be nuts
Then I say, What the heck?
'Cause hey
Hey!
I'll make you those eggs
Women weaken legs

Oh
Surprise
That's our secret weapon, kid
So no public appearances
No talking to the press, understand?

Welcome to Shamrock Meatpacking
Yo, Wally, what them two doing here?
Oh, I had this great idea, Rock
I'm making you into a celebrity on the TV!
Linda McKinney here, in a freezing Philadelphia meat locker
With heavyweight challenger Rocky Balboa
Where he has come up with a highly original way of training for his title bout
Believe it or not, he punches sides of raw beef!
Can we have a little demonstration for the Philadelphia folks at home?
Well, uh, I shouldn't
Yeah
Okay

Rising up
Straight to the top
Got the guts, got the glory
Don't get cocky, now
Just seen Balboa on the TV
He ain't no pushover
Went the distance, now he ain't gonna stop
But the fan, he's the man
Won't survive

Next!

You're in great shape, kid
No fighter's ever been in better shape
So one last run
And then no more running
Not even for the goddamn bus
Yeah, one last run
Go, kid! Go!
Rocky, run!

It's the eye of the tiger
It's the thrill of the fight
Rising up to the challenge of our rival
And the last known survivor stalks his prey in the night
And he's watching us, watching us all

It's the eye of the tiger
It's the thrill of the fight
Rising up to the challenge of our rival
And the last known survivor stalks his prey in the night
And he's watching us all with the eye

Gonna fly
Gonna fly now
Gonna fly
