In the depths of a New York winter
I am waiting for the baseball season to start
My old man was a New York Giants fan
Even though he lived in Brooklyn
The Mets didn't exactly do well last year
But the cry "Wait till Next Year"
Rang out!!
With Al Jackson, Ron Hunt, Casey Stengel and the great Tom Seaver
The Mets battled on through the years
Hope to make it to some games next season
Only went to one by myself last year
Met a babe from San Diego
And told someone
"Maybe I'll go see a lacrosse game next
He said "I didn't hear that"
Let's go Mets!!
