Jackie Chan Lyrics
Chorus
Jackie Chan, Jackie Chan, you’re the man, you’re the man
Jackie Chan, Jackie Chan, you’re the man, you’re the man
Verse 1
Born in a poor, poor family
You dared to dream what you wanted to be
Jackie the rest is history
The taste of success is sweet, sweet, sweet
Chorus
Verse 2
Rolled with the punches, you picked yourself up
Your ‘can do’ attitude got you on top
Star of the screen, you made your own luck
When the light goes green, don’t stop stop stop
Interlude Rap
Jackie go whackie with a kung-fu lackie and the people all say Ni Hao
Jackie jump backie lackie smackie knackie sackie, who’s raughing now
Jackie got a blackie and he won ton yackie, little birds go tweet tweet
Before you can say Kung Fuey, chop suey, Jackie’s back on his feet
With a loud hey ya and an iron bar, he smackie lackie’s sackie a blow
Then Jackie crakie ‘cause Kung Fu Lackies, Kung Fu one hung low
Fight scene
Chorus
Verse 3
When the tiger attacks, the dragon breathes fire
Deep in your heart there’s another desire
To give something back, the children are crying
All over the world, that’s why why why, why why why
Chorus repeats to fade out with ad libs
