《Drinking With Mickey Mantle》歌词

[00:00:00] Drinking With Mickey Mantle - The Taxpayers

[00:01:10] When I was five I was king of the yard

[00:01:13] And my grandfather said I had one hell of an arm

[00:01:19] I remember learning his split-finger fastball

[00:01:22] And all the tales he would stretch with that

[00:01:24] Famous turner charm

[00:01:28] And by the fire pit in my old backyard

[00:01:31] I used to sit transfixed to his stories

[00:01:37] About the time him and Mickey

[00:01:38] Mantle drank all night long

[00:01:40] Spinning yarns of all their former glories

[00:01:46] And I remember Christmas eve

[00:01:48] When I was ten and Ma told Grandpa

[00:01:51] He was wasting my time

[00:01:54] She sent him packing in the pouring rain

[00:01:57] Things were never quite the same after that night

[00:02:01] But in the package he left under the tree

[00:02:05] Was a new silver wristwatch addressed

[00:02:08] To his favorite grandson Henry
