Eye Of The Tiger is a classic 80's song written in 1982 by Frankie Sullivan and Jim Peterik, performed by Survivor. It was specifically written for the movie Rocky III upon request of Sylvester Stallone. Stallone told the writers he wanted a good boxing song and he sure got what he asked for! There was a scene in the movie where the writers of the movie wanted to use Another One Bites The Dust by Queen, but they were unable to secure the rights for it which is one of the reasons Eye Of The Tiger was written. Survivor was a band formed in 1978 but did not achieve the greater heights of their popularity until the same year Eye Of The Tiger was released. They did a wonderful job performing it and the song ended up being a bigger hit than they imagined.

Lyrics:
Risin' up, back on the street
Did my time, took my chances
Went the distance, now I'm back on my feet
Just a man and his will to survive
So many times, it happens too fast
You change your passion for glory
Don't lose your grip on the dreams of the past
You must fight just to keep them alive
It's the, eye of the tiger, it's the thrill of the fight
Risin' up to the challenge of our rival
And the last known survivor stalks his prey in the night
And he's watchin' us all with the eye of the tiger...
Face to face, out in the heat
Hangin' tough, stayin' hungry
They stack the odds still we take to the street
For the kill with the skill to survive
It's the eye of the tiger, it's the thrill of the fight
Risin' up to the challenge of our rival
And the last known survivor stalks his prey in the night
And he's watchin' us all with the eye of the tiger...
Risin' up, straight to the top
Had the guts, got the glory
Went the distance, now I'm not gonna stop
Just a man and his will to survive
It's the, eye of the tiger, it's the thrill of the fight
Risin' up to the challenge of our rival
And the last known survivor stalks his prey in the night
And he's watchin' us all with the eye of the tiger...
The eye of the tiger...
The eye of the tiger...
The eye of the tiger...
The eye of the tiger
