Song lyrics

Hurry home early - hurry on home,
Boom Boom Mancini's fighting Bobby Chacon.
Hurry home early - hurry on home,
Boom Boom Mancini's fighting Bobby Chacon.

From Youngstown, Ohio, Ray "Boom Boom" Mancini,
A lightweight contender, like father like son.
He fought for the title with Frias in Vegas,
And he put him away in round number one.

Hurry home early - hurry on home,
Boom Boom Mancini's fighting Bobby Chacon.
Hurry home early - hurry on home,
Boom Boom Mancini's fighting Bobby Chacon.

When Alexis Arguello gave Boom Boom a beating,
Seven weeks later he was back in the ring.
Some have the speed and the right combinations,
If you can't take the punches it don't mean a thing.

Hurry home early - hurry on home,
Boom Boom Mancini's fighting Bobby Chacon.
Hurry home early - hurry on home,
Boom Boom Mancini's fighting Bobby Chacon.

When they asked him who was responsible
For the death of Du Koo Kim,
He said, "Someone should have stopped the fight, and told me it was him".
They made hypocrite judgments after the fact,
But the name of the game is be hit and hit back.

Hurry home early - hurry on home,
Boom Boom Mancini's fighting Bobby Chacon.
Hurry home early - hurry on home,
Boom Boom Mancini's fighting Bobby Chacon.
