Lost Trailers, The - Underdog Lyrics






They said you ain’t got a prayer, a chance in you-know-where,
But I just didn’t care, when I looked in your eyes.
You were a long-shot from the start, an easy way to break my heart,
But as perfect as you are… you gotta risk it all sometimes.

I believe in the underdog,
Who chases dreams and breaks down walls,
The shy kid who gets the prom queen,
Who’s never been the star of anything.
And those two lovers hitched at city hall,
They’ve got each other, so they’ve got it all,
Call me a dreamer, say I’m a little naive,
Oh, but I believe in the underdog.

We bought a 4-room fixer up, on the side of town where times are tough,
Short on cash, but long on love, yeah, we sure showed it.
Then you gave me our little man, so small he fit inside my hands,
Two months early, two pounds, the tallest kid in third grade now.

Yeah, I believe in the underdog,
Who chases dreams and breaks down walls,
The shy kid who gets the prom queen,
Who’s never been the star of anything.
And those two lovers hitched at city hall,
They’ve got each other, so they’ve got it all,
Call me a dreamer, say I’m a little naive,
Oh, but I believe in the underdog.

The bank’s still breathin’ down our necks,
We’re still living check to check,
Girl, we dig deeper everyday,
We still hit our knees and pray
We pray, we pray…

I believe in the underdog,
Who chases dreams and breaks down walls,
A guy like me could get the prom queen,
I’ve never been the star of anything.
We were two lovers hitched at city hall,
We still got each other, so we got it all,
Call me a dreamer, say I’m a little naive,
Yeah you can call me a dreamer, say I’m a little naive,
Oh, but I believe in the underdog.
Oh, in the underdog.
I believe…
Yeah, in the underdog…
I believe…

    We had our son two months ago tomorrow. He was 33.5 weeks (6.5 early) and weighed 4 lbs 8 oz and spent 16 days in the Nicu. Now he is almost 8 lbs and doing great. I believe in the Underdog!

  3. G.... ....

    Brings me back to 7th grade in computer class 😪 it was amazing

  4. d.... n....

    I saw them 2 times in concert and have many things signed by them and had a meeting and greet two times ... I love them so much

  5. J.... G....

    I Believe in the under dog!! God Bless Everyone!!

  6. R.... Y....

    Love this song. Was born at 25 weeks in 1998 and listening to this song makes me emotional and makes me think of how well i can connect

  7. D.... ....

    I can't believe how far I've come. The pain in the ass who always got in the way, told me I'd never make it on my own, the very definition of underdog. Everything was a challenge, everyone gave up on me after the first few trys. I never stopped succeeding, never stopped getting better.

  8. A.... F....

    I believe in the Underdog. I love this song!

  9. S.... p....

    I used this song 2 years ago to help me get threw my daughter being born at 28 weeks and in the nicu. The words just helped me get threw allot and gave me hope. She is now 2 and doing amazing. On May 27th of this year we had our little boy Ryder come at 30 weeks I have found myself back here listening to this song for comfort. It is crazy how this song can comfort someone in this type of situation.

  10. b.... ....

    This is my life. married at city hall and the 2 baby and all! Thanks so much. I needed this tonight!

  11. B.... N....

    This song really hellped me to work for something that I wanted. I have always been the "Under Dog" I worked hard and my (Football team) only won 2 games last year, but this year we won 5 lost 4. At our last game we were losing 6-0 with 45 seconds left and they had the ball. Within their own 5 yard line, they fumbled. Our line backer dropped on it as nd then on first down. Ran it to the 1 yard line, on second down, scored the touchdown, then our kicker came out (Who hasn't made a PAT all year) and kicks it and then got the extra point. They had 2 chances to score. We kept tgem from getting into field goal range. Then we won the game 7-6. Our team has always been the underdog. We have NEVER had a winning season. But this year we did!

  12. m.... ....

    amen to you, and keep on proving that an underdog should NEVER be counted out just cause they're not the biggest thing walking around.

  13. A.... H....

    i just heard this song for the first time n it so reminds me of my son who was diagnoised with autism at age 6 i love him to death and would never change him just the disability he loves basketball but doesnt really understand the game hes played thru his junior high, but were not sure if he will be able to go further or not but i thank god everyday for him

  23. C.... ....

    I was born with Cryzon Sydrome, and the doctors gave me less than 6 months to live. I am now 18 years old and a senior in high school, and I just accepted a full ride to Kansas State University to play softball and livestock judging. I have survived about 65 surgies to stuff that my sydrome has caused. I am a 3 time State Player of the Year and 2 time State MVP. I have proven ever single doctor wrong. I am thankful everyday that I'm here. So I believe that I am a true underdog. Go Underdogs!!

  24. s.... w....

    I'm so sorry for your loss

  25. T.... E....

    Love this song

  26. C.... ....

    I'm sorry for your loss.

  27. C.... ....

    Unfortunately I wasn't pregnant at the time, but we aren't letting that get us down, we're still trying! Most of the time doctors forget that they are talking to/about a person, not just a part or a disease/disorder...

  28. C.... ....

    Shayna, I'm sorry it took me so long to see your comment. I hope things are going well
    for you & you are enjoying life!

    When my husband and I first heard this song we thought of our son we just had. Now I think of it again. Austin Wyatt Eggert-Michael 10/17/2011 - 11/10/2012.

  35. b.... ....

    Lyrics all wrong "speed of lightning roar of thunder, fighting all those men who plunder, Underdog'

  36. A.... G....

    My Husband and I first heard this song when we were on our 1hr and 15min. ride to the NICU where our Twins were after they were born 12weeks (3months) early, they were 2lb 6oz & 2lb 8oz, so small and fragile, We worked our butts off to make sure we could be with them @ the hospital everyday and spend as much time with our 2 older children @ home, We were told that they might have problems and maybe even lose our Twin boy due to heart issues, They are now 17months old & this is our song for them

  37. A.... A....

    I was the prom queen, we had our little man 1 month and 1 day early...with too many health issues to count. We do live check to check, but we have it all. My amazing husband told me about this song this morning and I have listened over and over. It is our life! The life we live isn't an easy one between bills being due and 15 doctor appointments a month for our little man but that's ok. We hit our knees and we pray and God takes care of us like He said He said he would.

  38. N.... M....

    I saw these guys in concert at The Cain's Ballroom in Tulsa, Ok. They did an opening show for Jake Owen and did an amazing job. Every since then I have loved this band. Very inspiring artists!

  39. t.... ....

    Ive met them, For Free, it was at the emmett cherry Festival in idaho. I dont see why theyre so cool.

  40. l.... ....

  41. h.... ....

    You gotta love this song! and the guys who sing it! :)

  42. S.... O....

    Me and my wife have known for some time that we were unable to have children of our own. March 17th of this year a crack head gave birth to a two-month premature, 3 lb 15 oz little girl that she didn't want so bad she tried to abort the baby herself and failed. Here we are 3 monthes latter and that little underdog who refused to be not wanted is now our little girl whom has given more joy than we could believe possible!

  43. D.... ....

    I was diagnosed with autism when I was 14 and everyone said I would end living dependently with family all my life. I'm 19 and now everyone says I am one of the greatest men they know. Funny, huh? :,)

    This song came on as I was getting out of the car to go to work the other day. I was late clocking in so I could listen to the whole thing. I've been playing it on repeat since.

    All that comes to mind while I listen is the most important guy in my life, my very best friend. He was born with a heart defect and wasn't supposed to adulthood. He's almost 21 now and we're both supposed to graduate college in less than a year.

    @JAHETK4510 He left to do his own thing. Stokes approached Jason Wyatt last year about working collaboratively and they hit it off really well. Decided to start over with a new Trailer's feel, but kept the band name. Wyatt has a pretty great voice, too. You can hear other songs on ReverbNation

  88. F.... ....

    There is a girl that the only thing I wish for before graduation is to go on one date with. The only problem is she is out of my league and completely stunning in every way. I wish she could believe in the underdog as much as I do :/. Even if it didn't go farther than the first date I would still feel more accomplished and pleased than anyone else on this planet.

  89. N.... ....

    I've loved this song since the first time I've heard it. (: My husband and I got married at City Hall (young) and I feel like everyone thinks we aren't going to stay together, we look forward to proving all those fools wrong. (:

  90. K.... ....

    @CaityLyn2010 bless you my dear, and congrats to you becoming a mother. as a dad of a special needs kid that is routinely written off by doctors and society in general, i have learned to "pay no mind" to the haters. we as humans, with the grace of god, adapt and overcome....i think sometimes doctors forget that. i have talked with many physical therapists that scoff at doctors prognosis' truth is the only person that limits you , is you. thank you for sharing your story.

  91. M.... ....

    @CaityLyn2010 stay strong

  92. t.... g....

  94. K.... W....

    i was an underdog as well born to a drug addict mother 2 months early 2.8 lbls i was diagnosed with cerebral palsy before i left the hospital i was 7 weeks old when my miracle showed up the woman and man i call my parents they believed in me from the start never holding me back from anything after a long battle with learning, emotional, physical disabilties, and still not knowing if something will happen and ill once again be back to where i started
