Shortstop Lyrics

Some for the money
Some for the show
Some for the credit
Some expect it from the get go

Some get bush-leagued
Some win the rings
Some get high reflecting glory that the good Lord
brings

Shorstop, standing in the lurch
Bridging faith and field research
High-wire balance, every move is inspired

Hedge your bets and handicaps
Shortstop's here to mind the gaps
Lord, who will rise up when that number's retired?

Who will rise up?
Who will rise up?
Who will rise up?

Some get lazy
Fake like they're lame
Some warm benches
Got no passion for the big game

Who's got spirit?
Who do you love?
Whose right hand is firmly planted in a golden glove?

Shorstop, standing in the lurch
Bridging faith and field research
High-wire balance, every move is inspired

Hedge your bets and handicaps
Shortstop's here to mind the gaps Lord, who will rise up when that number's retired?

And the moral of the story?
And the moral of the story?

Never send a towel-snapping,
Cup-adjusting,
Glory-grabbing,
Full o' baloney,
Sanctimony-spewing rookie in
To do a big man's job
Yessiree Bob

Shorstop, standing in the lurch
Bridging faith and field research
High-wire balance, every move is inspired

Hedge your bets and handicaps
Shortstop's here to mind the gaps
Lord, who will rise up when that number's retired?

Shorstop, standing in the lurch
Bridging faith and field research
High-wire balance, every move is inspired

Hedge your bets and handicaps
Shortstop's here to mind the gaps
Lord, who will rise up when that number's retired?

Who will rise up?
Who will rise up?
Who will rise up?
Who will rise up?
