the baseball project - 64 and 64 lyrics

the long season was a first, can’t remember if i read it
but now i’ve lost all track of time, can’t remember if i said it
cap flew right off my head, back when i threw real hard
won two in the ’64 series
it’s right there on the back of a bubble gum card
three nails in the seam, that’s what kept me going
one summer in sicks field, scribbling more than throwing
happy when the wind was blowing in

64 and 64—no room for disillusion
64 and 64—you win some and you lose ’em

i wasn’t quite a writer, yankees weren’t big readers
men or overgrown teenagers, night hunting for beaver
loafers, scufflers and hicks, hungover greenie eaters
good ballplayers too, bad swingers and wife cheaters
wearing old beat+up wife+beaters

64 and 64—memories in the confusion
64 and 64—you win some and you lose ’em

kuhn said i was a bad guy, well, i was in the long goodbye
ended up in a mexican pool, shot dead by elliott gould
some called me a social leper, my teammates were pretty p+ssed
and my wife wrote her own tell+all, kept mine on the best sellers list
it’s the same old story—arm goes, body follows
i can’t play scrabble anymore when the mind goes hollow
64 and 64—memory is an illusion
64 and 64—you win some and you lose ’em (some)
