There Used to Be a Ballpark

Lyrics：Joe Raposo Music：Joe Raposo Arranger：Gordon Jenkins

And there used to be a ballpark where the field was warm and green

And the people played their crazy game with a joy I'd never seen

And the air was such a wonder from the hot dogs and the beer

Yes, there used a ballpark right here

And there used to be rock candy and a great big Fourth of July

With the fireworks exploding all across the summer sky

And the people watched in wonder, how they'd laugh and how they'd cheer

And there used to be a ballpark right here

Now the children try to find it

And they can't believe their eyes

`cause the old team just isn't playing

And the new team hardly tries

And the sky has got so cloudy

When it used to be so clear

And the summer went so quickly this year

Yes, there used to be a ballpark　　right　here
