Born with a baseball and a bat in his hand
Daddy had him swingin' from the time he could stand
Out in the sandlot he was king at the plate

He kept his eye on the ball, sealed the pitcher's fate
And, every time he'd stand on deck
You'd hear him say


Chorus:
Load up the bases

Fire up the crowd
Let's clear out the dugout
We're gonna get real loud

Just throw me a fastball
Smoke from the mound
We're gonna end this thing in just one swing

I'm gonna knock one out
I'm gonna knock one out


Now, he's in the Big Leagues and his Dad's in the stands
He traded in the sandlot for a million fans
He's got his face on the big screen and his stats on a card

And, every time he's up to bat the ball leaves the yard
But, in his heart he's still the same
Man, he loves this game

He says

Chorus:

Load up the bases
Fire up the crowd
Let's clear out the dugout

We're gonna get real loud
Just throw me a fastball
Smoke from the mound

We're gonna end this thing in just one swing
I'm gonna knock one out
I'm gonna knock one out


Gimme a game underneath the lights
Gimme the roar of the fans

Gimme the sound of the big bats swingin'
Gimme a ring on my hand
Gimme a game underneath the lights

Gimme the roar of the fans
Gimme the sound of the big bats swingin'
Best of the best in the land


Gimme a game underneath the lights
Gimme the roar of the fans

Gimme the sound of the big bats swingin'
Gimme a ring on my hand
Gimme a game underneath the lights

Gimme the roar of the fans
Gimme the sound of the big bats swingin'
Best of the best in the land


Just throw me a fastball
Smoke from the mound

We're gonna end this thing in just one swing
I'm gonna knock one out
I'm gonna knock one out
