another game day.

I 
grabbed my bat and headed 
for the plate.

But the 
first pitch was a 
curve and I was 
done - strike one.
G

I stepped 
outta the box, looked the 
pitcher in the eye.
Em
C
You could 
read his lips, "Hey 
punk, you`re mine."
G

So I 
gave him a wink and said, "
Let`s see what you can 
do" - strike two.
