OK Blue Jays (Let’s Play Ball!)

About a year ago I asked you good people for an MP3 of the Toronto Blue Jays' official song, "OK Blue Jays (Let's Play Ball!)". Hours later I had it, and I meant to share it with everyone but somehow forgot.

Listening to today's Jays game against the Orioles I heard John McDonald put down a perfect bunt with players on the corners. Everyone was safe and I was just happy to hear the suicide squeeze was still a part of the game. That got me singing this song and finally, 15 months after the fact, I'm sharing it with you all.

Sing it loud, sing it proud. The lyrics are below the player, as if you'll need them...

You've got a diamond

You've got nine men

You've got a hat and a bat

And that's not all

You've got the bleachers

Got 'em from spring 'til fall

You got a dog and a drink

And the umpire's call

Waddaya want?

Let's play ball!

Is that a fly ball

Or is it a seagull

Coming in from the lake

Just to catch the game?

It's the last inning

Our guys are winning

Dave's put down a smoker

A strike

And you've got no doubt

(You're out!)

Waddaya want?

Let's play ball!

Okay (okay)

Blue Jays (Blue Jays)

Let's (Let's) Play (Play) Ball!

It's a beautiful evenin', fans

At the ballpark

When the game starts

Warm summer breezes

Sun's goin' down

And it's all dark

At the ballpark

But that's okay…it's a night game

Okay (okay)

Blue Jays (Blue Jays)

Let's (Let's) Play (Play) Ball!

Okay (okay)

Blue Jays (Blue Jays)

Let's (Let's) Play (Play) Ball!

Bring on the White Sox

Bring on the BoSox

Bring on the Brewers

The Rangers and the Yankees too

We'll beat the Indians

We'll beat the Tigers

We'll beat the A's so bad it'll make

Billy blue

Waddaya want?

Let's play ball!

Okay (okay)

Blue Jays (Blue Jays)

Let's (Let's) Play (Play) Ball!

Okay (okay)

Blue Jays (Blue Jays)

Let's (Let's) Play (Play) Ball!
