Lyrics What a Game - David Loud , Mark Jacoby
You'll
like
Baseball
It's
a
civilized
pastime
In
a
World
gone
mad
There
is
comfort
to
be
had
In
the
game
Father
played
at
school
Men
of
class
Competing
on
the
grass
Where
sportsmanship
And
fellowship
And
courtesy
are
the
rule
PLAY
BALL
Ain't
this
the
kind
of
weather
For
smackin
leather
For
playin
Baseball
The
kind
of
weather
makes
a
man
Hit
Like
Hell
HOCK
PTOOY
Let's
go
you
sons
of
bitches
Let's
see
some
pitches
Let's
play
some
Baseball
The
Kraut
is
strikin
out
again
Shmidt,
you
smell!
The
Giants
havn't
got
a
pray'r
Ahh
your
underwear
Up
your
alley
Go
back
to
where
your
mother
once
came
Hit
That
Ball
Run
you
Bastard
Hit
That
Ball
Kill
the
Kraut
WHAT
GAME
HOCK
PTOOY
Hey
schnabel,
take
your
head
out
of
your
ass!!
Heh,
I
guess
that's
tellin
him
huh
HEY
SCHNABEL
TAKE
YOUR
HEAD
OUT
OF
YOUR
Mmph
At
Harvard
we
were
gentlemen
Men
were
gentlemen
SO'S
YOUR
SISTER
We
called
each
other
mister
and
DOYLE,
YA
SUCK
Don't
Listen
Our
games
were
very
quiet
We'd
never
Riot
We'd
EAT
THAT
BASEBALL
The
worst
we'd
ever
said
would
be
RUN,
YA
SCHMUCK
Don't
Listen
Now
here's
this
noisy
rabble
This
foreign
babble
Who
let
this
happen
There's
hardly
one
american
name
YAH
HERZOG
Hit
That
Ball
Stupid
Pollack
Hit
That
Ball
Kill
the
Kike!
WHAT
GAME
It's
Braves
and
Giants
Two
to
Two
The
Pitchers
name
is
Hub
Perdue
Jack
Murray's
now
up
at
bat
*Ball
gets
hit,
gasps
and
awes*
My
god
would
somebody
look
at
that!
Ain't
this
the
kind
of
weather
to
get
together
and
BASH
HIS
TEETH
IN
The
kind
of
weather
makes
a
man
Hit
Like
Hell
A
find
uplifting
atmosphere
Bring
your
children
here
Teach
them
Baseball
The
game
all
true
Americans
Do
Damn
Well
It's
like
the
constitution
The
institution
Of
dear
old
Baseball
Where
every
man
is
trated
the
same
Kill
That
Mick
Run
you
Pollack
Strike
The
Kike
Kill
the
Krout
What
A
What
A
What
A
Up
your
alley
Edgar!
Game!
HOCK
PTOOY
YEAH!!
