Centerfield lyrics

Artist  : John Fogerty 
Song : Centerfield
 
Well, beat the drum and hold the phone - the sun
came out today!
We’re born again, there’s new grass on the
field.
A-roundin’ third, and headed for home, it’s a
brown-eyed handsome man;
Anyone can understand the way I feel.

Chorus:
Oh, 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,
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
Chorus
Yeah!
