Street fighting is looking for trouble
If you open your mouth
You're bound to rumble
Johnny looks tough
He's froze in the eyes
He keeps his mouth shut
He don't tell no lies
Johnny went out last night
Got in a bar room fight
Embarassed a jealous man in front of his cheating wife
The man said "Tonight you won
But I'll tell you son
This one's far from over"
Johnny said
[Chorus]
Big talk is just talk
Unless
Unless you're backing it up
Big talk is cheap talk is
Only words unless you're backing it up
(We're backin' it up)
I don't know why
Some men lay down and die
Don't they believe in what they're saying
You should get on your feet
Believe you can't be beat
Remember talk is only playing
[Chorus]
I remember what my old man used to say
(We're backin' it up)
Never give up and run
(We're backin' it up)
Don't let the talkin' breeze blow you away
Always remember
Stick to your guns
Big talk is looking for trouble
If you open your mouth
You better be ready to rumble
[Repeat Chorus 2 times]
We all say
[Chorus]
We're backing it up
Yeah
If you open your mouth
You're bound to rumble
Johnny looks tough
He's froze in the eyes
He keeps his mouth shut
He don't tell no lies
Got in a bar room fight
Embarassed a jealous man in front of his cheating wife
The man said "Tonight you won
But I'll tell you son
This one's far from over"
Johnny said
Big talk is just talk
Unless
Unless you're backing it up
Big talk is cheap talk is
Only words unless you're backing it up
(We're backin' it up)
Some men lay down and die
Don't they believe in what they're saying
You should get on your feet
Believe you can't be beat
Remember talk is only playing
(We're backin' it up)
Never give up and run
(We're backin' it up)
Don't let the talkin' breeze blow you away
Always remember
Stick to your guns
If you open your mouth
You better be ready to rumble
Yeah
