Baseball Makes Me Religious

Fun song with terrific lyrics

     

Baseball Makes Me Religious written by Ed Thompson I’m standing here lookin’ through the fence My boy’s at bat, this game's too tense The score is tied with a runner on third My stomach aches and my vision is blurred So I close my eyes, it’s time to pray I wonder if the Man upstairs is watching today And helps my little boy be miraculous Baseball makes me so religious Just one hit away from winning this game He’s got two strikes, so the ump proclaims I look around and I see more heads bowed With all this prayin’ he’s sure to make me proud Here comes the pitch, it’s on its way My little boy swings and hits it far away He hits it real long, he hits it a ton Right into the mitt of another dad’s son Cuz’ he closed his eyes and said a prayer And asked a favor from the Man upstairs To help his little boy be miraculous Baseball makes us so religious
