there are hundreds of songs about muhmmad ali, but i suspect that
yours is johnny wakelin's "black superman (muhammad ali)" (covered,
incidentally, on "thai beat a-go-go, volume3").

there is at least one compilation of muhammad ali songs.  the one that
WXDU has in its library is "hits and misses."
