Centerfield - John Fogerty

Well, beat the drum and hold the phone

The sun came out today

We’re born again, there’s new grass on the field

A-roundin' third, and headed for home

It’s a brown-eyed handsome man

Anyone can understand the way I feel

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 centerfield

Well, I spent some time in the Mudville Nine

Watchin' it from the bench

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

So say hey Willie

Tell Ty Cobb and Joe DiMaggio

Don’t say it ain’t so

You know the time is now

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 centerfield

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

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 centerfield
