The Lyrics
(instrumental opening)
Well, a smile from Ted
at Fenway Park.
The umps came out today.
It's Hank Aaron, and new flag o'er the field.
Stan the Man
and press photogs.
And it's Jackie Robinson.
And the Yanks come out
as Ike will seal the deal.
Oh, the Yankees shake hands.
Gionfriddo, he robs
DiMag.
Joe D, he's mad.
He's kicking the dirt.
That hurts.
Line drive clout.
It's an out.
Center field.
Well, Mel Allen talks
'bout Babe Ruth's Yanks.
And the Cardinals' Gashouse Gang.
Ducky Medwick slides,
fan hates it, Babe strikes out.
So, say hey, Willie
plays stickball.
And Joe DiMaggio
hauls fly ball in
but Ted answers the call.
Oh, Vic Wertz hits ball.
But it's caught by Mays
today.
Fans are amazed.
Washington clown guys.
John Mize.
Hits it deep.
Duke will creep.
Center field.
(instrumental break)
(Players seen during the non-vocal sections include:
Lou Gehrig, Eddie Mathews, Pete Gray, Ty Cobb,
Bobby Thomson, Gil Hodges, Roger Maris, Jimmie Foxx,
Walter Johnson, Bob Gibson, Bill Dickey,
Whitey Ford, Bob Feller, Mickey Mantle,
and Presidents Franklin D. Roosevelt and John F. Kennedy
throwing out ceremonial first balls.
Some players, it should be pointed out,
appear in the video more than once.)
Jackie's safe!
No, he's out!
Watching kids play ball
and talk to Ruth.
And the Babe rides car like horse.
You know I'd rather see Babe
than Leo the Lip.
Watch Ted hit the ball
and touch 'em all
in nineteen forty-one.
Bobby Thomson clouts
so Jints win, Bums get zip.
Oh, Don Larsen throws.
He throws perfect game
for fame.
Yogi jumps up
right into his arms.
No harms.
NBC
Maz'roski
And it's gone.
Party at Forbes.
The fans shout hurray
today.
Jumpin' like kids
just like Brooklyn did.
They did.
Duke came through.
Campy too.
That's the deal.
Yeah!
(instrumental close)
