Title
I Caught A Ball At The Ball Game
Description
Verse
It all began at the ball park
One Sunday afternoon.
Me and my girl were sippin’ soe pop,
Watchin’ the pitchin’ that really was top,
When all of a sudden the crowd raised their hands,
A guy hit a ball that went into the stands.
Chorus
I CAUGHT A BALL AT THE BALL GAME.
Boy, oh, boy, what a thrill!
I beat ‘em all at the ball game
When I got my hand on the pill.
You acted so proud and pleased as a pup,
So what does it matter what batter was up?
Holding your hand in the grandstand,
I was a hero, it’s true,
But catching the ball was nothing at all,
My greatest catch was you
It all began at the ball park
One Sunday afternoon.
Me and my girl were sippin’ soe pop,
Watchin’ the pitchin’ that really was top,
When all of a sudden the crowd raised their hands,
A guy hit a ball that went into the stands.
Chorus
I CAUGHT A BALL AT THE BALL GAME.
Boy, oh, boy, what a thrill!
I beat ‘em all at the ball game
When I got my hand on the pill.
You acted so proud and pleased as a pup,
So what does it matter what batter was up?
Holding your hand in the grandstand,
I was a hero, it’s true,
But catching the ball was nothing at all,
My greatest catch was you
