[00:16.810] |
We've gathered here to bid adieu |
[00:18.810] |
Us Boston boys, alas are few |
[00:20.970] |
Some from crosstown some from the coast |
[00:23.200] |
To give our skipper one last toast |
[00:25.310] |
We'll pour the good stuff round his casket |
[00:27.680] |
Drop some coin into the basket |
[00:29.700] |
Bow our heads and praise the Lord |
[00:31.660] |
Then rouse ourselves and strike a chord... |
[00:33.740] |
|
[00:33.980] |
Lets raise a glass and lift it up |
[00:35.900] |
Then sip from Jimmy Collins cup |
[00:38.070] |
And hail the lads that won the crown |
[00:40.130] |
That brought victory to our ground |
[00:42.350] |
|
[00:42.650] |
Lets raise a glass and lift it up |
[00:44.610] |
Then sip from Jimmy Collins cup |
[00:46.670] |
And hail the lads that won the crown |
[00:48.640] |
While turning baseball upside down |
[00:51.210] |
|
[00:59.320] |
We hit 'em hard, we hit 'em clean |
[01:01.590] |
The pitching of Big Bill Dineen |
[01:03.660] |
Some legged a bunt, some hit them out |
[01:05.830] |
Remember old Buck Freeman's clouts |
[01:07.850] |
We'll sing of Candy, Cy and Freddy |
[01:10.120] |
Patsy Dougherty, Broadway Hobe, |
[01:12.490] |
Chick, and Jack O'Brein |
[01:13.850] |
Honus Wagner sat there cryin' |
[01:16.470] |
|
[01:16.680] |
Lets raise a glass and lift it up |
[01:18.800] |
Then sip from Jimmy Collins cup |
[01:20.860] |
And hail the lads that won the crown |
[01:22.820] |
That brought victory to our ground |
[01:25.090] |
|
[01:25.250] |
Lets raise a glass and lift it up |
[01:27.220] |
Then sip from Jimmy Collins cup |
[01:29.330] |
And hail the lads that won the crown |
[01:31.290] |
While turning baseball upside down |
[01:34.000] |
|
[01:50.790] |
Our days with you indeed were great |
[01:52.910] |
and now that you have crossed the plate |
[01:54.870] |
and scored that final run of life |
[01:56.930] |
We'll hug your kids and kiss your wife |
[01:59.360] |
and tell of how you played the game |
[02:01.270] |
and led us all to wealth and fame |
[02:03.450] |
We'll lift our heads with one loud voice |
[02:05.510] |
Pay homage to "The People's Choice" |
[02:08.280] |
|
[02:09.940] |
Lets raise a glass and lift it up |
[02:11.960] |
Then sip from Jimmy Collins cup |
[02:14.080] |
And hail the lads that won the crown |
[02:16.150] |
That brought victory to our ground |
[02:18.360] |
|
[02:18.510] |

While turning baseball upside down |
[02:27.240] |
|
[02:33.880] |
Lets raise a glass and lift it up |
[02:41.950] |
Lets raise a glass and lift it up |
[02:50.620] |
Then sip from Jimmy Collins cup |
