《Right Field(LP Version)》歌词

[00:00:03] Right Field - Peter, Paul & Mary

[00:00:10] Saturday summers, when I was a kid

[00:00:15] We'd run to the schoolyard and here's what we did

[00:00:20] We'd pick out the captains and we'd choose up the teams

[00:00:24] It was always a measure of my self esteem

[00:00:29] 'Cause the fastest, the strongest played shortstop and first

[00:00:33] The last ones they picked were the worst

[00:00:38] I never needed to ask, it was sealed

[00:00:43] I just took up my place in right field

[00:00:49] Playing right field, it's easy you know

[00:00:56] You can be awkward, you can be slow

[00:01:00] That's why I'm here in right field

[00:01:03] Just watching the dandelions grow

[00:01:10] Playing right field can be lonely and dull

[00:01:15] Little leagues never have lefties that pull

[00:01:20] I'd dream of the day they'd hit one my way

[00:01:25] They never did, but still I would pray

[00:01:29] That I'd make a fantastic catch on the run

[00:01:34] And not lose the ball in the sun

[00:01:39] And then I'd awake from this long reverie

[00:01:43] And pray that the ball never came out to me

[00:01:48] Here in right field, it's easy you know

[00:01:53] You can be awkward and you can be slow

[00:01:58] That's why I'm here in right field

[00:02:01] Just watching the dandelions grow

[00:02:29] Off in the distance the game's dragging on

[00:02:34] There's strikes on the batter, some runners are on

[00:02:39] I don't know the inning, I've forgotten the score

[00:02:44] The whole team is yelling and I don't know what for

[00:02:48] Then suddenly everyone's looking at me

[00:02:53] My mind has been wandering, "What could it be?"

[00:02:57] They point at the sky and I look up above

[00:03:02] And a baseball falls into my glove

[00:03:09] Here in right field, it's important you know

[00:03:17] You gotta know how to catch, you gotta know how to throw

[00:03:21] That's why I'm here in right field

[00:03:24] Just watching the dandelions grow
