Joltin’ Joe DiMaggio

[Intro]
Hello Joe, whatta you know?
We need a hit so here I go
Ball one (Yea!)
Ball two (Yea!)
Strike one (Booo!)
Strike two (Kill that umpire!)
A case of Wheaties

[Verse 1: Betty Ronney]
He started baseball's famous streak
That's got us all aglow
He's just a man and not a freak
Joltin' Joe DiMaggio

[Hook: Les Brown Orchestra]
Joe, Joe DiMaggio
We want you on our side

[Verse 2: Betty Ronney]
He tied the mark at forty-four
July the 1st you know
Since then he's hit a good twelve more
Joltin' Joe DiMaggio

[Hook: Les Brown Orchestra]

[Verse 3: Betty Ronney]
From coast to coast that's all you'll hear
Of Joe the one man show
He's glorified the horsehide sphere
Joltin' Joe DiMaggio

[Hook: Les Brown Orchestra]

[Verse 4: Betty Ronney]
He'll live in baseball's Hall of Fame
He got there blow by blow
Our kids will tell their kids his name
Joltin' Joe DiMaggio

[Verse 5: Betty Ronney & Les Brown Orchestra]
We dream of Joey with the light brown bat
Joe, Joe DiMaggio
We want you on our side

[Verse 6: Betty Ronney]
And now they speak in whispers low
Of how they stopped our Joe
One night in Cleveland Oh Oh Oh
Goodbye streak DiMaggio
Joltin' Joe DiMaggio
