Ny Mets Blues

Now I see that World Series time has arrived Seems to me that something is missing there The NY Mets aren't in it As a fan from their inception I remember Mr. Stengel and Art Shamsky(Another Jewish Ballplayer - great) Kranepool - who never quite lived up to his potential but made a stout try at first Banner day - a lot of fun Holding up a sparkle strewn "We love the Mets" sign After Ebbets Field After Shea Stadium there is now Citifield Where the New York Metropolitans will will take over the green fields Onward O Metropolitans Your multitude of fans await your entrance As spring comes around again It brings the scent of flowers and a thousand, thousand fans - a great multitude Hoping and praying for a victorious season
