Corey Smith - The Baseball Song lyrics

rate me

The first thing I remembers the game that I luv

A man on the diamond with a golden glove

Daddy with me in the cheap seats above saying

'boy keep ur eye on the ball'

The crack of the bat, the stadiums roar

We were up on our feet for the tie'breaking score

I said 'daddy I know what u brought me here for' he said

'Good I hoped u'd hear the call'

Life's a fastball, belt high

Coming right down the middle

Don't stand there and let it go bye

Swing hard and aim for the stands!

My field of dreams was covered in stone,

An old gravel Parking lot next to our home.

Dad on the mound until the daylight was gone,

Saying boy keep ur eye on the ball' cos' it's

'Hey batter, hey batter, swing batter, swing'

The world is an infield always chattering

If u don't concentrate they'll spoil ur timin'

And u'll walk away cussin' them all

Life's a fastball, belt high

Coming right down the middle

Don't stand there and let it go bye

Swing hard and aim for the stands

And Thank God for ur fans

Thank God for ur fans

Thank God for ur fans

Thank God for ur fans

Dad threw a party when I got the call

All the years on the farm team finally paid off

Now

I’m in the big leagues playin' in the fall

Game 7 tied up in the knife

As I walked through the plate

I look in the stands

I see myself and I see my old man

I hear my family and all of my friends cheerin'

"Boy, keep ur eye on the ball"

It's a fastball, belt height

Comin' right down the middle

I’m gonna mail one to the grand stands

Good glory, this 1 is for the fans

For the fans

Thank God for the fans

Thank God for the fans

And my old man

My old man
