The National Pastime

The National Pastime - Various Artists

Fellas (Yeah )

Fellas (Is it )

Hey team

(Off the benches its Marilyn )

I just got a date

(She just got a date )

With baseballs Joltin Joe

(That lucky so-and-so )

So run me round the bases

Put me through my paces

And teach me all the

Things a sluggers lover

Should know

What's that there

(That's the pitchers mound )

Have you ever seen a shape

That is so perfectly round

(Batter up ) Play ball

(You better give it your all )

Cause all men like to play at

The national pastime

Who's that man

(That's the first base coach )

Have you noticed that he

Signals every time I approach

(Kill the ump ) Throw him out

(Because there isn't a doubt)

That all men like to play at

The national pastime

When I was just a little girl

I liked being dainty and purty

But now that I'm giving sports a whirl

I find I kinda like to get dirty

(Yeah )

Baby what's that there

(That's the team bullpen)

And I like the odds I'm seeing

No girls all men

Hit the deck look alive

Beware the lady's line drive

Because my skill and my passionll

Elevate the national

Peanuts

Hot Dogs Crackerjack

I don't care I don't care

If I ever get back

When the seasons over

The play won't end

Cause a baseball diamond

Is a girls best friend

Yes my style and my fashionll

Elevate the national

Pastime
