C5                     F5            A5         G5
Had his glove on his head, tryin to beat the heat,

Coach said son are you here to play ball,
          F5          C5              F5           G5

And the widow of a man, whose record he broke,
Was there that night when the commissioner spoke,
And he gave him a plaque and he said well done,
Then he leaned in and whispered, somewhere, someone sayin,
