CHALLENGE T0 A CHAMPION You know the things you had to do To reach the mountain 's peak: You know the price you had to pay For the goal which you did seek. You know the sacrifice you make, The hours you had to spend, And you also knew the glory, The pride at season 's end. But despite the work, the sweat, the pain When all is said and done, lt's a simple thing to reach the top - To become a number one. The challenge to a Champion ls to reach within the soul, And find the courage and the will To repeat that winning role. To stand e'en taller than before, To grow e'en more each day, lt's a simple thing to reach the top. The Challenge is to stay.
