John Fogerty
"Centerfield"

Well 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 headed for home,
It's a brown eyed handsome man,
anyone can understand the way I feel.

(Chorus)
Ooohh Put me in coach, Im ready to play-today
Put me in coach, I'm ready to play today,
Look at me, I could be Centerfield.

Well I spent some time in the Muddville Nine,
Watching it from the bench.
You know I took some lumps, when the mighty Case struck out.
So say "Hey Willy," Tell the Cobb, and Joe DiMaggio,
don't say it ain't so,
you know the time is now.

(Chorus)

Got a beat-up glove, a home-made bat,
and a brand new pair of shoes.
You know I think it's time to give this game a ride.
Just to hit the ball, and touch 'em all, a moment in the sun.
It's gone and you can tell that one good-bye.

(Chorus X2)
