[Verse 1]
I feel it in the morning when i fall out of bed
I never get a break and i can't get ahead
I'm up against the ropes, shaking in my shoes
I take it on my chin, till i'm black and blue

[Chorus]
I'm a punching bag
I'm a punching bag
I've had enough of getting beat up
I'm a punching bag

[Verse 2]
I'm backed into a corner with a foreman in my face
I can't fight my way out of this place
But i learned to be tough right out of the box
I've graduated from the school of hard knocks

[Chorus]
I'm a punching bag
I'm a punching bag
I've had enough of getting beat up
I'm a punching bag
Hit me all you want to, i've got pretty thick skin
Don't count me out, i just might surprise you
When i swing back again

[Verse 3]
She broke her promise and now she's gonna leave
When she floated like a butterfly it stung me like a bee
She took off the gloves and took a cheap shot
She left me hanging in a pretty tough spot

[Chorus]
I'm a punching bag
I'm a punching bag
I've had enough of getting beat up
I'm a punching bag
Hit me all you want to, i've got pretty thick skin
Don't count me out, i just might surprise you
When i swing back again

[Bridge]
I wanna set the records straight
Every day life is a heavy weight
You can tear me up, there ain't no doubt
But you ain't never gonna knock me out

[Chorus]
I'm a punching bag
I'm a punching bag
I've had enough of getting beat up
I'm a punching bag
Yeah, i've had enough of getting beat up
I'm a punching bag
Hit me all you want to, i've got pretty thick skin
Don't count me out, i just might surprise you
When i swing back again
