Paroles

[Verse 1]
Little boy in a baseball hat
Stands in the field with his ball and bat
Says, "I am the greatest player of them all"
Puts his bat on his shoulder and he tosses up his ball
[Verse 2]
And the ball goes up and the ball comes down
Swings his bat all the way around
The world's so still, you can hear the sound
The baseball falls to the ground
[Verse 3]
Now, the little boy doesn't say a word
Picks up his ball, he is undeterred
Says, "I am the greatest there has ever been"
And he grits his teeth and he tries it again
[Verse 4]
And the ball goes up and the ball comes down
Swings his bat all the way around
The world's so still, you can hear the sound
The baseball falls to the ground
[Verse 5]
He makes no excuses
He shows no fear
He just closes his eyes
And listens to the cheers
[Verse 6]
Little boy, he adjusts his hat
Picks up his ball, stares at his bat
Says, "I am the greatest and the game is on the line"
And he gives his all one last time
[Verse 7]
And the ball goes up like the moon so bright
Swings his bat with all his might
And the world's as still, as still can be
And the baseball falls, and that's strike three
[Verse 8]
Now, it's suppertime, and his momma calls
Little boy starts home with his bat and ball
Says, "I am the greatest and that is a fact
But even I didn't know, I could pitch like that"
Says, "I am the greatest, that is understood"
But even I didn't know, I could pitch that good"
