"Take Me Out To The Ballgame" lyrics

I caught a foul ball up in the bleachers
And the shortstop autographed it
I keep it on the dresser
With every day that passes
I've been throwin' it to myself
I've got pretty good at catchin'
I just called to say I miss you
And making sure you know that
It's my birthday pretty soon
All I want is for you to

Take me out to the ballgame
Pick me up at the house
What's this "every other weekend" thing even all about?
'Cause Mama says she loves you
And in some ways always will
I guess maybe things are different now
But Daddy, can't you still
Take me out to the ballgame?

I'd sure love to go again
Seems like it's been so long
We could get some tickets Friday night
Me and you and maybe Mom
'Cause I feel like it's my fault
That you two ain't together
I'm so sorry I was bad
I promise I'll be better
'Cause I just wanna see you
And if you'll come back, you don't have to

Take me out to the ballgame
Pick me up at the house
What's this "every other weekend" thing even all about?
'Cause Mama says she loves you
And in some ways always will
I guess maybe things are different now
But Daddy, can't you still
Take me out to the ballgame?

We'd eat hotdogs in them same seats
And in the 7th inning, we'd sing

Take me out to the ballgame
Pick me up at the house
What's this "every other weekend" thing even all about?
'Cause Mama says she loves you
And in some ways always will
I guess maybe things are different now
But Daddy, can't you still
Take me out to the ballgame?

Take me out to the ballgame
