Well, beat the drum, and hold the phone...

[Catshrink]

The sun came out today
We're born again
There's new grass on the field

Rounding 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 in centerfield

Well, I spent some time
In the Mudville Nine
Watching 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 a 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
It's gone and you can
Tell that one goodbye

(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
Gotta be in centerfield
Yeah

Sigh... about time, eh?

1. I love this song!!

Nothing gets me in the mood for spring like this song. If you see someone bopping down I-35, tapping the steering wheel, singing like a maniac, it is probably me! (If I'm not in my car, I am dancing around the living room).
