On my B-Day we went over to the Butterfly house

tag you're it

In hot pursuit

Take me out to the ballgame

Take me out to the Ballgame
Take me out to the crowd


Buy me some peanuts and cracker jacks
I don't care if I never get back

Let me root, root, root, for the Cardinals
If they don't win its a shame


For its 1-2-3 strikes you're out at the old ball game
