Intro To My Favorite Spring

Intro To My Favorite Spring

(album: Live - For The Record - 1996)

It's just a week or so, I think, till pitchers and catchers report for spring training and life begins again for some of us. So I wanna sing a song here in the dead of winter for one of my favourite games. Even though I spent the first ten years of my life in a city where they played no Major League baseball: Chicago (laughter from the audience). It was hard, it was hard; it does something to you permanently I think, to grow up in a city where bad baseball is played over and over and over. Anyhow, be that as it may, I love the game of baseball. We're gonna do a song not so much about baseball as about people who love baseball: parents who enjoy having a game of catch with the kids before dinner this is for you.
