Well, beat the drum and hold the phone - the sun came out today!
G C D
We're born again, there's new grass on the field.
G C G
A-roundin' third, and headed for home, it's a brown-eyed handsome man;
C D G
Anyone can understand the way I feel.
[Chorus]
G C G
Oh, put me in, Coach - I'm ready to play today;
G C G
Put me in, Coach - I'm ready to play today;
C D G
Look at me, I can be Centerfield.
Well, I spent some time in the Mudville Nine, watchin' it from the bench;
You know I took some lumps when the Mighty Casey struck out.
So Say Hey Willie, tell Ty Cobb and Joe DiMaggio;
Don't say "it ain't so", you know the time is now.
[Chorus]
Yeah! I got it, I got it!
Got a beat-up glove, a homemade bat, and brand-new pair of shoes;
You know I think it's time to give this game a ride.
Just to hit the ball and touch 'em all - a moment in the sun;
(pop) It's gone and you can tell that one goodbye!
[Chorus x2]
Yeah!
