Swinging For The Fence lyrics
Songwriters: Dean, Billy; Barnette, Ray;
Home game, little league
Bottom of the 9th, it was up to me
The bunt sign, a man on 3rd
Tie the game, Coach? That s absurd
I made my mind up at the plate, if I see that fast ball
Well, I just might have to swing away
Big deal, so what
I had to take that home run cut
My life just don t make sense
If I ain t swinging for the fence
Home girl, major league
Everybody said she s too good for me
Prom night, she had a date
But I asked her to dance anyway
Then I gave her a kiss on her front porch swing
Then she thought it was funny
When I said, "Someday I m gonna buy you a ring"
Big deal, so what
If it takes everything I got
My life just don t make sense
If I ain t swinging for the fence
Home game, minor league
She up in the stands still pulling for me
The bunt sign, a man on 3rd
I m looking for that inside curve
But he came hard with his fast ball, last time I saw
It was heading out over center-field wall
Yeah, big deal, so what
Now they want to pay me a million bucks
My life just don t make sense
If I ain t swinging for the
Big deal, so what
I had to take that home run cut
My life just don t make sense
If I ain t swinging for the fence
Swinging for the fence
Swinging for the fence
Cold beer, hot dogs
