centerfield lyrics

Well beat the drum and hold the phone
The sun came out today
We’re born again
There’s new grass 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]
