Lyrics

1. Now Johnny McCann was a baseball fan
Each summer he loved the sport more
One day at a game a sweet little dame
Asked him if he’d tell her the score
Wise Johnny said “Yes”, it was soft, I guess
He make a date for the next day
Bought her chewing gum, said “That’s going some”
Between every inning he’d say

Chorus:
You’ve made a home run with me
You’re batting nine-ninety-three
It’s not a foul tip or a small scratchy single
But a regular old fashioned Hans Wagner bingle
For we both could lead the love league
If my Boss Umpire you’d only be
‘Twould be all to the peaches
From Grandstand to Bleachers
‘Cause you made a home run with me, he’s safe

2. Their case grew so strong ’twas not very long
‘Till they set the big wedding date
John said, “We’ll look cute, we’ll wear baseball suits
Right up to the Parson’s home plate
Take a nice baseball hat and a mask and bat
I’ll put on the ring with a glove
We’ll be signed for life as husband and wife
We’ll never strike out, dear, on love
