Talkin' Baseball (Forever Dodger Blue) (Los Angeles Dodgers Version)

Talkin' Baseball (Forever Dodger Blue) (Los Angeles Dodgers Version) - Terry Cashman

The whiz kids had won it,

Bobby Thompson had done it,

And Yogi read the comics all the while.

Rock n roll was being born,

*** we would scorn,

So down on the corner

The national past-time went on trial.

We're talkin' baseball

Kluzuski Campanella

Talkin' baseball

The man and Bobby Fella

The Scooter, the Barber, and the Newc

They knew them all from Boston to Dubuque

Especially Willie, Mickey, and the Duke.

Well Casey was winning,

Hank Aaron was beginning,

One Robbie going out, one coming in.

Kiner and Midget Cadell,

The Thumper and Mel Parnell,

And Ike was the only one winning down in Washington.

I'm talkin' baseball

Kluzuski Campanella

Talkin' baseball

The man and Bobby Fella

The Scooter, the Barber, and the Newc

They knew them all from Boston to Dubuque

Especially Willie, Mickey, and the Duke.

Now my old friend

The Bachelor

Well he swore he was the Oklahoma Kid.

And Cookie played hooky

To go and see the Duke,

And me I always loved Willie May.

Those were the days.

Well now it's the 80's,

And Brett is the greatest,

And Bobby Bonds can play for everyone.

Rose is at the Vet,

Rusty again is a Met,

And the great Alexander is pitching again in Washington.

I'm talkin' baseball,

Like Reggie, Cueez(?) and Berry,

Talkin' baseball,

Carew and Gaylord Perry,

Seaver, Bobby Schmidt and Vida Blue,

If Cooperstown is calling, it's no fluke.

They'll be with Willie, Mickey, and the Duke.

Willie, Mickey, and the Duke. (Say hey, say hey, say hey)

It was Willie, Mickey and the Duke (Say hey, say hey, say hey)

I'm talkin' Willie, Mickey and the Duke (Say hey, say hey, say hey)
