Lyrics

Hello Joe, whatta you know? We need a hit so here I go. Ball one (Yea!) Ball two (Yea!) Strike one (Booo!) Strike two (Kill that umpire!) A case of Wheaties He started baseball's famous streak That's got us all aglow He's just a man and not a freak, Joltin' Joe DiMaggio. Joe, Joe DiMaggio We want you on our side He tied the mark at forty-four July the 1st you know Since then he's hit a good twelve more Joltin' Joe DiMaggio Joe, Joe DiMaggio We want you on our side From coast to coast that's all you'll hear Of Joe the one man show He's glorified the horsehide sphere Joltin' Joe DiMaggio Joe, Joe DiMaggio We want you on our side He'll live in baseball's Hall of Fame He got there blow by blow Our kids will tell their kids his name Joltin' Joe DiMaggio We dream of Joey with the light brown plaque Joe, Joe DiMaggio We want you on our side And now they speak in whispers low Of how they stopped our Joe One night in Cleveland Oh Oh Oh Goodbye streak DiMaggio
