Billy Dean - Swinging for the Fence lyrics

rate me

Home game

Little league

Bottom of the 9th

It was up to me

The bunt sign

A man on 3rd

Tie the game, Coach?

That's absurd

I made my mind up at the plate

If I see that fast ball

Well, I just might have to swing away

Big deal

So what

I had to take that homerun cut

My life just don't make sense

If I ain't swinging for the fence

Home girl

Major league

Everybody said she's too good for me

Prom night

She had a date

But I asked her to dance anyway

Then I gave her a kiss on her front porch swing

Then she thought it was funny

When I said, 'Someday I'm gonna buy you a ring'

Big deal

So what

If it takes everything I got

My life just don't make sense

If I ain't swinging for the fence

Home game

Minor league

She up in the stands

Still pulling for me

The bunt sign

A man on 3rd

I'm looking for that inside curve

But he came hard with his fast ball

Last time I saw-

It was heading out over center-field wall

Yeah!

Big deal

So what

Now they want to pay me a million bucks

My life just don't make sense

If I ain't swinging for the..

Big deal

So what

I had to take that homerun cut

My life just don't make sense

If I ain't swinging for the fence

Swinging for the fence

Swinging for the fence

Cold Beer!

Hot dogs!
