I Love This Game
Quelle: Spotify
My name is Eddie Roberts
I'm a starting pitcher
For the Winston Salem Warthogs
In the Carolina league
I'm thirty-four years old
My playing days are numbered
I can't control my curve ball
My fastball's lost some speed
I've been knockin' around in the minors
Since I got out of high school
I signed my first pro contract on my seventeenth birthday
Burlington to Birmingham, to Charlotte I've travelled
But the White Sox never called and I stalled in triple A
(Chorus)
But I love this game
God I love this game
Maybe I should quit
That's a hard thing to admit
'Cause I love this game
I won fourteen games one year
I lead the league in shut-outs
Several of the pro scouts told me I was on my way
I hurt my arm in Lynchburg, they said it was a pinched nerve
I swear ever since sir, it ain't never been the same
(Chorus)
May be time to quit
That's hard to admit
'Cause I love this game
My name is Eddie Roberts
I'm a startin’ pitcher
For the Winston Salem Warthogs
In the Carolina league
