(Seven Williams, Walter Brandt, Bill Brandt)



Verse 1

Born with a baseball and a bat in his hand

Daddy had him swinging from the time he could stand

Out in the sandlot he was king at the plate

He kept his eye on the ball and sealed the pitcher's fate

And every time he'd stand on deck 

You'd hear him say



Chorus 1

Just throw me a fastball, smoke from the mound

We're gonna end this thing with just one swing

I'm gonna knock one out

I'm gonna knock one out



Verse 2

Now he's in the big leagues and his dad is in the stands

Got his face on the big screen and his stats on a card

And every time he's up at bat, the ball leaves the yard

But in his heart it's still the same, man he loves this game



Chorus 2

He says load up the bases, fire up the crowd

Lets clear out the dugout, we're gonna get real loud

Just throw me a fastball, smoke from the mound

We're gonna end this thing with just one swing

I'm gonna knock one out

I'm gonna knock one out



Bridge

Give me a game underneath the lights

Give me a ring on my hand



Give me a game underneath the lights

Give me the roar of the fans

Give me the sound of the big bat swinging 

Best of the best in the land (Repeat Bridge)



Chorus 3

Load up the bases, fire up the crowd

Lets clear out the dugout, we're gonna get real loud

Just throw me a fastball, smoke from the mound

We're gonna end this thing in just one swing

I'm gonna knock one out

I'm gonna
