A Song About Baseball

A SONG ABOUT BASEBALL W/M: Bob Bennett (C) 1982 EMI Christian Music Group (Straightway Music) Saturdays on the baseball field And me afraid of the ball Just another kid on Camera Day When the Angels still played in L.A. I was smiling in living black and white Baseball caps and bubble gum I think there's a hole in my glove Three-and-two, life and death I was swinging with eyes closed Holding my breath I was dying on my way to the bench But none of it mattered after the game When my father would find me And call out my name A soft drink, a snow cone, a candy bar A limousine ride in the family car He loved me no matter how I played He loved me no matter how I played But none of it mattered after the game When my father would find me And call out my name Dreaming of glory the next time out My father showed me what love is about He loved me no matter how I played He loved me no matter how I played But none of it mattered after the game When my father would find me And call out my name
