Lyrics
In the joy of the new season We'd ride our bikes for miles To a vacant lot on Maple Street Toss the bat and choose up sides All summer long from dusk 'til dawn We all paid our dues Everybody was the Babe But I was always 42 And as the jerseys faded one by one The Babes would come and go But I played every inning From the sandlot to the show Got my letter and my grip I'll see you boys around Got a one way ticket to Cooperstown My ticket's punched to Cooperstown His rookie year, they called him up Just to send him down Couldn't even hit his weight Couldn't turn that thing around But on the field that echoes life It's a boys' game played by men Sometimes it knocks you down But you get back up again
