Baseball

[Chorus]
There's a palm tree where the pine used to be
And there’s an ocean right down the street
You can play baseball twelve months a year
It only rains a couple of days, and those days are here

[Verse 1]
Said she was leaving, had her bag in hand
Said living my life, she could not stand
Well I told her that I'd make a change
Yeah she heard it all before and it still don't mean a thing
But I had my dreams since I was a kid
Keeping my head down, not caring where I fit
And though she loved me, a deep and true love
But riding down a one way street just ain’t big enough

[Chorus]
There's a palm tree where the pine used to be
And there's an ocean right down the street
And you can play baseball twelve months a year
It only rains a couple of days, and those days are here

[Verse 2]
And she had her dreams since she was a girl
Said she felt like she couldn't say a word
So she suppressed them for a while
And you can keep it all locked up til the damn thing does wild
Yeah and freedom comes at a cost
Yeah that open road looks good now if you ain't lost
And when daytime turns to night
Well you're sitting there wondering if the choices you made were right

[Chorus]
And there's a palm tree where the pine used to be
There's an ocean right down the street
And you can play baseball twelve months a year
It only rains a couple of days, and those days are here

[Bridge]
And when those clouds open up and that clay turns to mud
Well I bring it all home and I don’t clean it up
I got one pair of jeans, well ain’t that enough?
Oh I know you hate to see me looking rough
Oh I know you hate to see me looking rough

[Chorus]
There's a palm tree where the pine used to be
And there’s an ocean right down the street
You can play baseball twelve months a year
It only rains a couple of days, and those days are here
Those days are here
