paper ceilings - charlie root lyrics
poor old charlie root
remembered for one lone pitch to babe ruth
poor old charlie root
served up a homer in ’32
babe pointed to center
or so the tale goes
what really happened
n0body quite knows
he smashed the curve
over the wall
but was the shot really called?
poor old charlie root
remembered for one lone pitch to babe ruth
poor old charlie root
served up a homer in ’32
and it haunted poor charlie
all the way to his grave
when no one believes you
well what can you say?
“oh deep in my heart
i know what is true”
said poor old charlie root
poor old charlie root
remembered for one lone pitch to babe ruth
poor old charlie root
served up a homer in ’32
he won two hundred
in his long career
pitched for the cubbies
for sixteen good years
he’d be a hero
in most other stories
but charlie root
was deprived of his glory
give your life to a game
and what do you get?
remembered for something that never happened
give your life to a game
yeah what do you get?
remembered for one single pitch
poor old charlie root
served up a homer in ’32
