A song about the longest tennis match in history, which took place at the Wimbledon Championships in June 2010, between John Isner and Nicolas Mahut.
[Verse 1]
Isner and Mahut played all day long
Played until the sun went down
Isner and Mahut took the long, long road
Played until the roosters crowed
[Chorus]
Hey mom, can we go out and play?
Yes boys, but don't play all day
Six four, three six, six seven, seven six
Seventy sixty-eight
[Verse 2]
Isner and Mahut on the Wimbledon lawn
Played until the day was gone
Played to the chimes of old Big Ben
'Til Christ returned and left again
[Chorus]
Hey mom, can we go out and play?
Yes but boys, don't play all day
Six four, three six, six seven, seven six
Seventy sixty-eight
[Bridge]
Isner and Mahut, Isner and Mahut
Bang bang bang bang, shoot shoot shoot
All other long matches rendered moot
(Rendered moot!)
By Isner and Mahut
[Verse 3]
Isner and Mahut played three days straight
The ball boys cancelled all their dates
Who won, who lost, don't matter, that's the truth
Unless your name is Isner or Mahut
[Chorus]
Hey mom, can we go out and play?
Yes boys, but don't play all day
Six four, three six, six seven, seven six
Seventy sixty-eight
Six four, three six, six seven, seven six
Seventy sixty-eight
