Uncle Phil Henry's Favorite Baseball Team

NEW YORK YANKEES,

BASEBALLS MOST LOVED TEAM.

 I'M JUST JOKING,

THAT'S ONLY IN YOUR DREAMS.


THE YANKEES BOUGHT 

GEORGE HERMAN RUTH.

SO HE WOULDN'T,

BEAT THEM FROM THE MOUND.

THEN THEY SPENT 

MORE MONEY.

BOUGHT THE BEST 

FROM ALL AROUND.


ONE, MUST ADMIRE, 

ALL THE GREATEST 

YANKEE NAMES.

I DON'T BELIEVE 

ANY BASEBALL TEAM 

HAVE MORE 

IN THE HALL OF FAME.


I KICK BACK AND SMILE. 

BECAUSE I'M A BASEBALL FAN. 

I LIKE TO CHEER 

FOR THE UNDER DOG 

JUST BECAUSE I CAN.


YOU GOTTA LOVE 

THE YANKEES,

WHEN THEY COME 

TO YOUR HOME TOWN.

YOU BUY A SEAT 

WATCH THE GAME.

HOPE YOU WIN 

SERIES CROWN.


WITH THE BEST TALENTS 

IN BASEBALL.

ALL ON THE VERY 

SAME TEAM.

YES I CAN IMAGINE 

HOW THIS,

CAN BE A DREAM.


IF YOU CAN'T BEAT EM 

BUY EM.

MAKES PERFECT SENSE 

TO ME.

WE'RE TALKING 

WORLD SERIES.

IT'S BUSINESS 

AND IT'S NOT FREE.


UNCLE PHIL 

THANKS MY FRIEND.

FOR THE INTRODUCTION 

TO BASEBALL.

I SEE YOUR POINT 

AND I WILL AGREE

IT'S THE GREATEST GAME OF ALL.
