Home Run

The lights go on, another game day

I grab my bat and headed for the plate

But the first pitch was a curve, and I was done

(Strike one)

I step out of the box

Look 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"

(Strike two)

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 'til it's going, going, it's gone

Oh, oh, oh, oh-oh

Oh, home run

We need a home run

Oh, oh, oh, oh-oh

Oh

We need a home run

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

I didn't join this team to sit on the bench

I'm going deep, swingin' for the fence

I got some friends on base I gotta get home

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 that ball

You gotta pray and swing

Watch it 'til it's going, going, it's gone

Oh, oh, oh, oh-oh

Oh, home run

I want a home run

Oh, oh, oh, oh-oh

Oh

I want a home run

We are not the first to play this game

Or stand over this plate

We are surrounded by the legacy

Like they're sittin' in the stands

I can see them waving their hands

Saying "Go, go all the way"

(It's going, it's going, it's going, oh my, it's out of here
