Baseball Cards So Many

Baseball cards oh so many,
I had two, three and four,
of each one, I had.
The trouble is there gone for evermore.

I had the rookies of Mantle, Mays,
really I did, honest I did.
Where are they now?
Well, they went their ways.

Started collecting again in seventy-four,
once again, oh so many,
three, four of each one,
this time I will keep and start me a store.

Being a Phillies fan, I probably had a very expensive motor on my bicycle, using Yankee cards on the spokes. Vince
