Lyrics

His name is Michael Vic
And he's the come back kid
You heard about the stories
And the things he did
How he was down and out
And how he went to Jail
Many of us thought that he
Would not prevail
Now you should understand
That Mike's a friend of mine
I know him to be true and he is very kind
Some anger and some hatread
Hasn't gone away
I look into his eyes and then I have to say
He's flying with the Eagles up there in the Sky
I see him on T.V. and I think my oh my
He dances on the field as he leads the team
I look at Michael Vic I see
American Dream
Michael could have stayed down in his own defete
Michael is the man and he will not be beat
It really doesn't matter if he wins the game
Michael's won our hearts and he will not be shamed
Philly is his home and I am proud to say
Philly is the place that finally let him play
Thanks to Mister Laurie and his darling wife
They gave a second chance and they restored his life
He's flying with the Eagles up there in the Sky
I see him on the field and I think my oh my
He dances on the field as he leads the team
I look at Michael Vic I see American dream.
Every body knows that all good things must end
How many hits can Michael's body mend
But this amazing story must be seen
There's life after Football for this man in green
Each and every man should get a second chance
Each and every man should get a chance to dance
Long live Michael he's the M V P
Long live Michael he's the M V P
Do do do do doo doo doo do doo
