The "BreakS" and
What They Mean

You got to hand II TO him.
Hes sure q lucky guy.
I hit the ball right on the nose,
And draw an easy fly.
lie turns and puts II In the stands
without an inch to spare,
So they're calling him a hero.
And they say the boy Is there.
He's got the Umpires buhaioed'
They all give him the edge;
They're after me Mt every trip.
With hammer. tongs and sledge.
I never get a shade the BEST
No matter how they come.
While he goes piling up the hits
That make the bleacners hum.
just give me even half chance
I'd lam II to the fence;
They'd need a million carpenters
To solder up the dents.
But every time let one pass
TIL. umpire bellows strike"
And puts me in n hole before
get one that ] like.
You say he goes for everything
Now easy on that gun:
They all come sailing up to him
Like sugar-costed fun.
Hes got the pitchers double -crossed
And wabbly at the knees.
NJ when they see him AT the plate
They're half afraid to sneeye.
You say he's better In n pinch
guess ne ought to be.
I'm batting just two-sixty eight.
And ne three-hfty three.
What gets my goat Is all this siush
That he IL such a star.
A hundred bonebesd bush league boys
Can knock ON Just as far.
I know famed tho last time out.
And with the bases full
waited for n good one
just to soak II to the bull.
And then ne fooled me with . curve
That Wagner couldn't get.
II I had ever landed
That old pilId be travelling yet.
No matter how you hit EN-.
Or how big or small the stakes,
The buffers stand all ready
To announce you got the breaks.
Perhaps within the years to come
When woman rules the earth
winner may romp DER the line
On pure. unsullled worth.
