The squeal of sneakers

The pounding of feet

The sounds on the court

Oh just so sweet

The sounds of the ball bouncing on the court

Can't forget my teammates call

Every cheer brings happiness to my ear

But the touch of the leather ball 

Oh just give me it all

There's so many sounds

But the one I like the best

Is the swish

Oh hearing and seeing the ball go through the net

The taste of the sweat 

And the smell of popcorn in the stands

Just brings happiness to my hands.
