Stephen Bard - Grandpa Jack Lyrics

Some guys win
When the game is tied
In the bottom of the ninth
Two men out
Some guys lose
On the other side
That's what the game is all about
From what I can tell
I know it so well
Having watched it night and day
Some guys win
And some guys lose
At least they get to play
Some guys swing
When it's do or die
They hit the ball
Drive in runs
Some guys watch
Strike three go by
And think that they're the unlucky ones
From what I can tell
It's all just as well
They'll get their cuts
Another day
Some guys win
Some guys lose
At least they get to play
Oh to round those bases
Score the winning run
Oh to be like Willie Mays
All those seasons in the sun
They told me my chances
Are a million now to one
I wish that I was young
Young again
For I still
Love this game
I do
I love it all
I love the sound
A piece of good wood can make
On the sweet spot of a ball
From what I can tell
I know it so well
Having listened night and day
Some guys win
Some guys lose
At least they get to play
At least they get to play
At least they get to play
At least they get to play
