Kenny Rogers - The Greatest lyrics
[Kenny Rogers - The Greatest lyrics]
Little boy in a baseball hat
Stands in the feild with his ball and bat
Says, I am the greatest player of them all
Put his bat on his shoulder and
He tosses up the ball
And the ball goes up and the ball comes down
Swings his bat all the way around
The worlds so still he can hear the sound
The baseball falls to the ground
Now the little boy doesn't say a word
Picks up his ball, he is undeterred
Says, I am the greatest there has ever been
And he grit's his teeth and he tries it again
And the ball goes up and the ball comes down
Swings his bat all the way around
The worlds so still he can hear the sound
The baseball falls to the ground
He makes no excuses he shows no fear
He just closes his eyes
And listens to the cheers
Little boy, he adjusts his hat
Picks up his ball, stares at his bat
Says, I am the greatest
The game is on the line
And he gives his all one last time
And the ball goes up when the moons so bright
Swings his bat with all his might
And the worlds so still as still can be
And the baseball falls and thats strike three
Now it's suppertime and his mama calls
Little boy starts home with his bat and ball
Says, I am the greatest that is a fact
But even I didn't know I
Could pitch like that!
Says, I am the greatest that is understood
But even I didn't know
I could pitch that good
Stands in the feild with his ball and bat
Says, I am the greatest player of them all
Put his bat on his shoulder and
He tosses up the ball
And the ball goes up and the ball comes down
Swings his bat all the way around
The worlds so still he can hear the sound
The baseball falls to the ground
Now the little boy doesn't say a word
Picks up his ball, he is undeterred
Says, I am the greatest there has ever been
And he grit's his teeth and he tries it again
And the ball goes up and the ball comes down
Swings his bat all the way around
The worlds so still he can hear the sound
The baseball falls to the ground
He makes no excuses he shows no fear
He just closes his eyes
And listens to the cheers
Little boy, he adjusts his hat
Picks up his ball, stares at his bat
Says, I am the greatest
The game is on the line
And he gives his all one last time
And the ball goes up when the moons so bright
Swings his bat with all his might
And the worlds so still as still can be
And the baseball falls and thats strike three
Now it's suppertime and his mama calls
Little boy starts home with his bat and ball
Says, I am the greatest that is a fact
But even I didn't know I
Could pitch like that!
Says, I am the greatest that is understood
But even I didn't know
I could pitch that good
