Lyrics

Now listen to me you guys
This game of baseball is only one half skill
The other half is something else
Something bigger
You've gotta have heart
All you really need is heart
When the odds are sayin' you'll never win
That's when the grin should start
You've gotta have hope
Mustn't sit around and mope
Nothin's half as bad as it may appear
Wait'll next year and hope
When your luck is battin' zero
Get your chin up off the floor
Mister, you can be a hero
You can open any door, there's nothin' to it but to do it
You gotta have heart
Miles and miles and miles of heart
Oh, it's fine to be a genius, of course
But keep that old horse
Before the cart
First you gotta have heart
A great slugger, we haven't got
A great pitcher, we haven't got
A great ball club, we haven't got
What've we got?
We've got heart
All you really need is heart
When the odds are sayin' you'll never win
That's when the grin should start
(Now you're gettin' the idea!)
We've got hope
We don't sit around and mope
Not a solitary sob do we hear
Mister, 'cause we've got hope
(Boys, I'm proud a ya)
We're so happy that we're hummin'
That's the hearty thing to do
'Cause we know our ship will come in
So it's 10 years overdo
We've got heart
Miles and miles and miles of heart
Oh, it's fine to be a genius, of course
But keep that old horse before the cart
So, what the hecks the use of cryin'?
Why should we curse?
We gotta get better, 'cause we can't get worse
And to add to it
We've got heart
We've got heart
We've got heart
Top of the 9th, one away
Nobody on
The Senators now just two outs away from the pennant
Bauer steps in
Hollingsworth gets his sign
Delivers
Bauer swings
And it's a hard hit ball to deep short
Sohovic charges over
Backhands it beautifully and there's the long throw
And he's out by a step
Here comes Gloria Thorpe, tell it to her
Go ahead Rocky, you start (Yeah, go ahead)
We've got heart
All ya really need is heart
When the odds are sayin' you'll never win
That's when the grin should start
We're so happy that we're laughin'
That's the hearty thing to do
So we ain't been autographin'
'Cept to signin' I.O.U
We've got heart
Miles and miles and miles of heart
Oh, it's fine to be a genius, of course
But keep that old horse before the cart
Who minds those pop bottles flyin'?
The hisses and boos
The team has been consistent (Yeah, we always lose)
But we're laughin' 'cause
We've got heart
We've got heart
We've got heart
