We'll beat the drum and  hold the phone  The sun came out today  We’re born again  there's new grass on the field    Roundin’ third and heading for home  it's a brown eyed handsome man  Anyone can understand  the way I feel    [Chorus:]   Put me in coach  I'm ready to play today  Put me in coach  I'm ready to play today  Look at me, I can be  Centerfield    Well I spent some time  In the Mudville Nine  Watching to from the bench  You know I took some lumps  When the might Case struck out    So say hey Willy  Tell Ty Cobb  And Joe Demagio  don't say it ain't so you  know the time is now    [Chorus]     Got a beat up glove  And a homemade bat  And a brand new pair of shoes  You know I think it's  time to give this game a ride    Just hit the ball and touch em’ all  A moment in the sun  it's gone, you can  kiss the one goodbye    [Chorus x2]    these lyrics are submitted by The Guy Who Wanted To Play Centerfield, But Never
