If There Was A Time

The bases are loaded
It's the last inning
Since the start of the game
The other team has been winning

Hit the ball out
That would be fine
Or hit a double
Right down the line

If there was a time
Now would be it
Just one swing of the bat
Just one big hit

The ball is pitched
And hit up into the air
Every fan leaps
Out of their chair

The fans are all praying
Don't hit the ground
The game can be won
With this one trip around

The ball finally lands
Over the wall
It looked as though that baseball
Never would fall

The fans scream and cheer
As he crosses home plate
For this was a team
That was just too great

He is pummeled by his teammates
In a friendly style
Then they all tackle him
Which causes a pile

If there was a time
Now would be it
Just one swing of the bat
Just one big hit
