baseball project – sometimes i dream of willie mays lyrics
it’s 1965, me and my dad mac
50 miles to candlestick in our green vw van
a giants-dodgers pennant race
mays and koufax face to face
sometimes i dream of willie mays
and tell him i was there
sometimes i dream of willie mays
and the sun comes out, and the fog lifts, and he’s there
now it’s 1973, right across the bay
playing right field for the mets, a ball goes through his legs
i cheer the a’s to victory
but that was something i never wanted to see
sometimes i dream of willie mays
and tell him i was there
sometimes i dream of willie mays
and the wind dies down, and the sun comes out, and the fog lifts, and he’s there
in 1954, i was born into this dream
the kind that’s always black and white, like an old newsreel i’ve seen
a mile away in the polo grounds
he pulls it in and spins himself around
sometimes i dream of willie mays
and tell him i was there
sometimes i dream of willie mays
and the wind dies down, and the sun comes out, and the scoreboard works, and the fog lifts, and he’s there
and i’m there
