Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The lights go on, another game day
I grabbed my bat and headed for the plate
But the first pitch was a curve, and I was done
[Verse 2]
I stepped out of the box, looked the pitcher in the eye
You could read his lips, "Hey punk, you're mine"
So I gave him a wink and said, "Let's see what you can do"
[Verse 3]
Gotta keep my eye on the ball
Swing straight and true, and follow through
Don't be afraid, whatever the call
Because we're never alone
Our coach is there to cheer us on
Well, it's the wind-up
Here comes that ball
You gotta pray and swing
Watch it till it's going, going, it's gone
[Verse 4]
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
We need a home run
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
We need a home run
[Verse 5]
You know, life can be like a baseball game
We're on the same team, but we're not all the same
That's why we've got to learn to play together
[Verse 6]
I didn't join this team to sit on the bench
I'm going deep, swinging for the fence
I got some friends on base, I gotta get home
[Verse 7]
Gotta keep your eye on the ball
Swing straight and true, and follow through
Don't be afraid, whatever the call
Because we're never alone
Our coach is there to cheer us on
Well, it's the wind-up
Here comes the ball
You gotta pray and swing
Watch it till it's going, going, it's gone
[Verse 8]
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
Oh, oh, home run
I want a home run
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
I want a home run
[Verse 9]
We are not the first to play this game
Or stand over this plate
We are surrounded by the legacy
I can see them in the stands
I can see them waving their hands
Saying, "Go, go, all the way"
[Verse 10]
Come on, now
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
Oh, oh, home run
Hey, it's gone, gone now
[Verse 11]
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
Oh, oh, home run
Hey, it's a home run
[Verse 12]
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
Oh, oh, home run
Bring it back, bring it back, it's gone
