Little Boy, Baseball Bat

Little Boy, in a baseball hatStands in the field with his ball and batSays I am the greatest player of them allPuts his bat on his shoulder and he tosses up his ballAnd the ball goes up and the ball comes downSwings his bat all the way aroundThe world's so still you can hear the soundThe baseball falls to the groundNow the little boy doesn't say a wordPicks up his ball, he is undeterredSays I am the greatest there has ever beenAnd he grits his teeth and he tries it againAnd the ball goes up and the ball comes downSwings his bat all the way aroundThe world's so still you can hear the soundThe baseball falls to the groundHe makes no excuses, He shows no fearsHe just closes his eyes and listens to the cheersLittle boy, adjusts his hatPicks up his ball, stares at his batSays I am the greatest the game is on the lineAnd he gives his all one last timeAnd the ball goes up like the moon so brightSwings his bat with all his mightAnd the world's so still as still can beAnd the baseball falls, and that's strike threeNow it's supper time and his mama callsLittle boy starts home with his bat and ballSays I am the greatest that is a factBut even I didn't know I could pitch like thatHe says I am the greatest that is understood but even I didn't knowI could pitch that good.
