Lyrics

I think this is my prime

Kind of feel like Satchel Paige

So damn good at what I do

I can flaunt it a little

Have fun, take my time

Put my skills on display

Call my spot

Let loose

And send it straight down the middle


Can't just have skill

Got to get you some style

Aura to the max

Never turn back the dial

Hit them with the intellect

Then finish with a smile

Hustle so hard

They call you their rival

Play with so much heart

That your some kid's idol

Til the ump calls game

And the score says final

You got to play the full nine

If you want to take the title

Preparation and determination

Are absolutely vital

There must be something to mimic

If their scouting your mechanics

So drop that ass a lesson

And be sure they understand it

Show off those Cool Papa wheels

And that Hilton Smith cannon

With the flare of Satchel Paige

Do some Monty Irvin damage

You beat the best here

Hit the road to find a challenge

Off to the next town

To showcase your talents

Even when your feet bleed

And your palms grow calloused

Barnstorming for pennies

While someone worse plays in a palace

Slept on old busses

Traveled in any whether

Played on empty stomachs

Both games of a double header

But they never heard you fussing

Just the snap of the leather

Bat crack when you're slugging

Bust out the tape measure

See them kids cheering

All out in the cheap seats

Play for no pay

Do whatever it takes to succeed

Be so original

They won't let you compete

Then pull a Rube Foster

And make your own league


I think this is my prime

Kind of feel like Satchel Paige

So damn good at what I do

I can flaunt it a little

Have fun, take my time

Put my skills on display

Call my spot

Let loose

And send it straight down the middle


Delivers

Strike one

Swing and a miss

Winds up

Strike two

Looks at the pitch

Ball just outside

Maybe an inch

Now down he goes

Back to the bench


Knock them clear out to the bleachers

I won't just hit them

Grooved a four seamer

Now they running for the fences

Got them warming up relievers

Because this guy here's finished

Better than them major leaguers

Just like Josh Gibson

Even cut

Smooth swing

Follow through too clean

Got Leonard type power

Some of Leon Day's speed

Manage risks like Buck O'Neil

Know when to hold and when to steal

Take my place in the lineup

My position in the field

Intensity of Dihigo

A leader in my dugout

Longevity of Minoso

A constant fixture in this clubhouse

Tough as Double Duty and Campy

Must protect my plate

Want to be like Larry or Jackie

And fight adversity with grace

Start that black Cadillac

Like Satch and ride

Away from Municipal

Down to Eighteenth and Vine

Where the party still popping

Everybody dressed to the nines

Waltz in like I own it

Still dirty from a slide


I think this is my prime

Kind of feel like Satchel Paige

So damn good at what I do

I can flaunt it a little

Have fun, take my time

Put my skills on display

Call my spot

Let loose

And send it straight down the middle


Delivers

Strike one

Swing and a miss

Winds up

Strike two

Looks at the pitch

Ball just outside

Maybe an inch

Now down he goes

Back to the bench
