Lyrics:

Glad:
Playing baseball for the Philadelphia Phillies
Or so cool like the Colorado Rockies
Oh yeah
Cleveland has Guardians
San Francisco Giants
Rad, rad
Seattle’s team is the beloved Mariners
For Los Angeles, it’s the Dodgers
So, oh oh, oh
St. Louis Cardinals for my Grandad
And the Cubs for my Dad, yeah
With their plays, I sit mesmerized
Outfielders and infielders, electrified
Plus the San Diego Padres
Play for MLB

They wind me up, like a fast pitch
4 balls for a walk, 3 strikes ‘til you’re out
Watch the ball
And that bug, squish it
Run your heart out
Slide into first, second, third
They wind me up, like a fast pitch
4 balls for a walk, 3 strikes ‘til you’re out
Watch the ball
And that bug, squish it
Run your heart out
Slide into first, second, third, home, you see

From the Washington Nationals to the Miami Marlins
Tampa Bay Rays, plus the Detroit Tigers
Baltimore’s Orioles
Cincinnati’s got Reds,
New York Yankees and Mets, grand slam
Fly into Pittsburgh to meet the Pirates
Houston the Astros, plus the Texas Rangers, they glow
In Arizona, it’s the Diamondbacks
Oakland’s got Athletics
Always love those Angels of Anaheim
Boston Red Sox to Chicago White Sox, pitch with might
Remember the Toronto Blue Jays
And the Atlanta Braves

They wind me up, like a fast pitch
4 balls for a walk, 3 strikes ‘til you’re out
Watch the ball
And that bug, squish it
Run your heart out
Slide into first, second, third
They wind me up, like a fast pitch
4 balls for a walk, 3 strikes ‘til you’re out
Watch the ball
And that bug, squish it
Run your heart out
Slide into first, second, third, home, you see

Kansas, Kansas, Kansas
City with its Royals
Everyone from Mickey Mantle, McGwire, & Babe Ruth
Minnesota, Minnesota
With its Twins
Plus the Milwaukee Brewers are so smooth
Kansas, Kansas, Kansas
City with its Royals
Everyone from Barry Bonds to Scott Spiezio too
All-Star, All-Star, All-Star,
All-Star Games
Plus the Tulsa Drillers in my local view~

They wind me up, like a fast pitch
4 balls for a walk, 3 strikes ‘til you’re out
Watch the ball
And that bug, squish it
Run your heart out
Slide into first, second, third, home too
They wind me up, like a fast pitch
4 balls for a walk, 3 strikes ‘til you’re out
Watch the ball
And that bug, squish it
Run your heart out
Slide into first, second, third, home, you see

Kansas, Kansas, Kansas
City with its Royals
Everyone from Mickey Mantle, McGwire, & Babe Ruth
Minnesota, Minnesota
With its Twins,
Plus the Milwaukee Brewers are so smooth
Kansas, Kansas, Kansas
City with its Royals
Everyone from Barry Bonds to Scott Spiezio too
All-Star, All-Star, All-Star,
All-Star Games
Plus the Tulsa Drillers in my local view~

They wind me up, like a fast pitch
