Centerfield

Centerfield (Live/1997) - John Fogerty

Well I beat the drum and hold the phone

The sun came out today

We're born again

There's new grass on the field

Just a-roundin' third and headed for home

It's a brown-eyed handsome man

Anyone can understand the way I feel

Oh put me in Coach I'm ready to play today

Put me in Coach I'm ready to play today

Look at me I can be Center field

Well I spent some time with the Mudville Nine

Watchin' it from the bench

You know I took my lumps when the Mighty Casey struck out

So say "Hey Willie tell Ty Cobb and Joe Di Maggio"

Don't say "It ain't so"

You know the time is now

Oh put me in Coach I'm ready to play today

Put me in Coach I'm ready to play today

Look at me I gotta be Center field

Got a beat-up glove a homemade bat

And brand-new pair of shoes

You know I think it's time to give this game a ride

Just to hit the ball and touch 'em all a moment in the sun

It's gone and you can tell that one goodbye

Oh put me in Coach I'm ready to play today

Put me in Coach I'm ready to play today

Look at me gotta be

Oh put me in Coach

I'm ready to play today

Put me in

Coach I'm ready to play today

Look at me I gotta be Center field

Yeah
