PLAY BALL!

                                                           PLAY BALL!

                                            From out of the closets once again

                                            Come a bat, a ball, a glove
                                            As youngsters from both far and wide
                                            Warm up for the game I love

                                            Practice is about to begin
                                            For those who like to score
                                            And if you judge by anxiousness
                                            A great season is in store

                                            They're cracking bats and chewing gum
                                            My sons of the sultry swat
                                            They're
eager boys who've left their toys
                                            To show us what they've got

                                            It'll be a strikeout here, a homerun there
                                            Lots of cheers and heartaches too
                                            But they will've grown into little men
                                            Before the season's through

                                            For baseball's quite a game, you see
                                            It's life before your eyes
                                            It teaches those who raise their gloves
                                            To reach gamely for the prize


                                            Around the bases they will run
                                            Footloose and fancy free
                                            And I have yet but one regret
                                            It's them instead of me
