I met a good friend a long time ago
I could make it to the cooler shade
But I ended up burying myself alive
To prove that I could use a spade
I could be the next, I could be the first
A few people even know my name
I'm a big league hitter with a hell of a glove
But they never put me in the game
But I-I-I'm gonna be alright
If I leave here tonight
And I told a good friend a long time ago
Mmmmmmmmmm, oohhhooohhh
I try to find a little humor everywhere I go
Mmmmmmmmmm, hey-hey
A little humor is the only thing that keeps me sane
Oh and I begged my poor mom a long time ago
I'm gonna be alright
I'm gonna be alright
I-I-I'm gonna be alright
If I leave here tonight
