letra de walter johnson - jonathan richman and the modern lovers
well i’m a gonna tell you if you don’t know
bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum
about a great ball player from a long time ago
bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum
who’s a hero to me – i ain’t puttin’ you on son
’cause i’m now gonna tell the story of baseball’s great
walter johnson
all through baseball he was loved and respected
was there bitterness in walter johnson?
well it was never detected
well now, when pitchers throw their pitch to scare
bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum
they’ll actually tried to almost hit that opposing player
do de do de do de do de do de do de do
walter johnson wouldn’t do that, not even just a little
he made sure he threw that baseball right down the middle
and all through baseball he was loved and respected
was there bitterness in walter johnson?
well it was never detected
now – he pitched for the washington senators back in about 1924 now – uh, 1906
now look, when the washington nine was a-gwine to win
bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum
walter would actually ease up a little on the opposition
that’s right
bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum
now the other teamates they simply didn’t get it
they said, “walter, how come you let him hit it?”
now walter just told them with his gentle smile
“boys, this game isn’t any fun if you don’t get a hit once in a while”
now all through baseball he was loved and respected
was there bitterness in walter johnson?
well it was never detected
now a record’s just a record in a book that’s just a book
bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum
this walter johnson i speak of never so much as gave the opposing team a dirty look
bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum
and a season’s just a season in a game that was supposed to be just a game
walter johnson cared about people more than he cared about fame
so all through baseball he was loved and respected
was there bitterness in walter johnson?
well it was never detected
ooh
