Ev'ryone sings, "Home of the brave and land of the free" You've had twenty wins and one save, now you're up against me How can I keep control of my nerves? The way you wind-up when you Throw me those curves? I hear him yell, "strike," and it's a good call It's so hard to keep my eyes on the ball On the baseball Love is just like baseball All it is is baseball Love is just like baseball You have played with me like a pawn For most of the night How'd you get your uniform on So perfectly tight? You struck me out twice I singled but died Then you made me pop up By sneakin' inside I'm gonna change that sneer to respect Make your eyes open wide When you feel me connect to the baseball Here I am behind in the ninth The count's 3 and 2 End the game like Beethoven's NINTH Is what I must do So now that we're here Alone in the dark I'm gonna send this Right out of the park If I was you I'd leave it alone 'Cause I'm tearin' 'round third Slidin' towards home
