Walter Johnson

 

Walter Johnson

(Album: You Must Ask The Heart - 1995)


Well, I'm a gonna tell you if you don't know
Bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum
About a great ball player from a long time ago
Bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum
Whose a hero to me I ain't putting you on son
Cause I'm now gonna tell a story of baseball's great Walter Johnson

All through baseball he was loved and respected
Was there bitterness in Walter Johnson?
Well, it was never detected

Well now, when pitchers throw their pitch to scare
Bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum
They'll actually tried to almost hit that opposing player
Bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum
Walter Johnson wouldn't do that, not even just a little
He made sure he threw that baseball right down the middle

And all through baseball he was loved and respected
Was there bitterness in Walter Johnson?
Well, it was never detected

Well, when the Washington nine was a-goin to win
Bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum
Walter would actually ease up a little on the opposition
Bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum
Now the other teammates they simply didn't get it
They said, "Walter how come you, let him hit it?"
Now Walter just told them with his gentle smile
"Boys, this game isn't any fun if you don't get a hit once in a while"

Now all through baseball he was loved and respected
Was there bitterness in Walter Johnson?
Well, it was never detected

Well, a record's just a record in a book that's just a book
Bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum
This Walter Johnson, I speak of, never so much as gave the opposing team a dirty look
Bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum
And a season's just a season in a game that was supposed to be just a game
Walter Johnson cared about people more than he cared about fame

So all through baseball he was loved and respected
Was there bitterness in Walter Johnson?
Well, it was never detected
