Well beat the drum and hold the phone The sun came out today We're born again There's new gra** on the field Roundin' third and heading for home It's a brown eyed handsome man Anyone can understand the way I feel [Chorus:] Put me in coach I'm ready to play today Put me in coach I'm ready to play today Look at me, I can be Centerfield Well I spent some time In the Mudville Nine Watching to from the bench You know I took some lumps When the might Case struck out So say hey Willy Tell Ty Cobb And Joe Demasio Don't say it aint so you know the time I now [Chorus] Got a beat up glove And a homemade bat And a brand new pair of shoes You know I think it's time to give this game a ride Just hit the ball and touch em' all A moment in the sun It's gone, you can kiss the one goodbye [Chorus x2]
