Ballpark Kids

[Verse 1]
We wear rubber spikes and socks pulled high
Just like our heroes do
Two-out rallies, skinned up knees
And cheeks full of big league chew

[Pre-Chorus 1]
It wasn't girls, books or skateboards
It was numbers on the scoreboard
And ridin' home in dad's Ford
With an ice cold Mountain Dew

[Chorus 1]
We were ballpark kids, the boys of summer
Rockin' t-shirts with our name and number
We were loud, proud, three strikes, you're out
Heads in a cloud of dust

We were no hold back, swing for the fencers
All-star studs or ridin' the benchers
We were all-in and in it together
Doing just what we loved

[Post-Chorus]
We were ballpark kids, we were ballpark kids

[Verse 2]
Drop pop flies, and coach high fives
Hot dog on a bun
Most of us didn't know it was
Our moment in the sun

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Yeah, life was just beginning
We measured time by innings
And losing was still winning
'Cause we were just having fun

[Chorus 1]
We were ballpark kids, the boys of summer
Rockin' t-shirts with our name and number
We were loud, proud, three strikes, you're out
Heads in a cloud of dust

We were no hold back, swing for the fencers
All-star studs or ridin' the benchers
We were all-in and in it together
Doing just what we loved

[Post-Chorus]
We were ballpark kids, we were ballpark kids

[Bridge]
And now it's 9 to 5
Business suits and ties
And payin' bills
But in our hearts we're still

[Chorus 2]
Ballpark kids, the boys of summer
Rockin' t-shirts with our name and number
We were loud, proud, three strikes, you're out
Heads in a cloud of dust

We were no hold back, swing for the fencers
All-star studs or ridin' the benchers
We were all-in and in it together
Doing just what we loved

[Post-Chorus]
We were ballpark kids, we were ballpark kids
We were ballpark kids, we were ballpark kids
