Paul Ellis - Jackie Robinson lyrics

Your rating:

Jackie Robinson was a man who swung a bat
And because he was so good at it, he became much more 
than that
He was the first man of color in the game
He rose from the Negro leagues in the fame 
Into a world that was begging for change
..they gave him a shout out calling his name!
Chorus:
Jackie, Robinson
Jackie, Robinson
Jackie! It changed the way we play the game
The game, play ball!
Baseball, football, basketball on jumping track
He was a world class athlete, no world was gonna hold 
him back
Oh, he was caught up to rise above the shame, 
The slurs and the threats that she overcame.
His courage belongs in the hall of fame
And in the... they gave him a shout out calling him his 
name. 
Chorus:
Jackie, Robinson
Jackie, Robinson
Jackie! It changed the way we play the game
The game, play ball!
He was the first name of color in the game 
He rose from the Negro leagues and the fame 
Into a world that was begging for change
..they gave him a shout out calling him his name. 
Chorus: (x2)
Jackie, Robinson
Jackie, Robinson
Jackie! It changed the way we play the game
The game, play ball!
