Base Ball

Title

Base Ball

Description

What is the game that every body raves so much about
Baseball Baseball
What is the game that all the papers write so much about,
Baseball Baseball
The little boys will run away from school to see the gae,
Altho’ it isn’t really right you know they’re not too blame,
For when you were a little boy, you used to do the same
To go and see a game of Baseball
(Shout ad lib)
Rah Rah Ziz Boom Bah three cheers for the great old game

V2
Why is it little Johnny tells his boss that he is sick
Baseball Baseball
And asks if he will let him off to see a doctroc quick
Baseball Baseball
He’s seated in the bleachesr and by chance he looks across,
The batter hits the ball a crack and in the crowd it’s lost,
Johnny makes a run for it, and bumps in to the boss
The both of them ran after the Baseball
(Shout ad lib)
Rah Rah Ziz Boom Bah now Johnny isn’t working any more.

Chorus
Baseball Baseball
Hear ev’rybody rooting for their nine
Score is one to one some one makes a run
Cho. (Hurrah)
He got across the home plate just in time
Cho. (Strike One)
One Strike
Cho. (Strike Two)
Two Strikes
Another strike you’re out oh! What a shame
Excitement is intense
Gee! But it’s immense
When you go to a Baseball game
