Lyrics
I see the bearded ninja
Alone upon the hill
His name is Chuck Norris
And kill I know he will
Chuck Norris
(Chuck, chuck, chuck he’s the man!)
Round house kick!
No, Chuck is not a surgeon
But he knows some tricks
The quickest way to a man’s heart
Is with Chuck Norris’ fists
Chuck Norris
(Chuck, chuck, chuck he’s the man!)
Round house kick!
If you get out alive
Chuck will put you in your place
The power of a roundhouse kick
Can be seen from outer space
Chuck Norris
(Chuck, chuck, chuck he’s the man!)
Round house kick!
If you can see Chuck Norris
Then he can see you
If you cannot see him
He’s prob’ly right behind you
Chuck Norris
(Chuck, chuck, chuck he’s the man!)
Round house kick!
Don’t break the law in Texas
You’ll put yourself in danger
Chuck Norris’s twin brother
Is Walker Texas Ranger
Chuck Norris
(Chuck, chuck, chuck he’s the man!)
Round house kick!
He doesn’t have a chin
But should still be feared
Legend tells of a third fist
Behind his magnificent beard
Chuck Norris
(Chuck, chuck, chuck he’s the man!)
Round house kick!
