It’s Opening Day Today

Another new season on the way

The crack of the bat

The smell of the grass

It’s time to get out there and play

No time to waste; the first pitch on the way

And everybody’s talkin ‘bout how last season’s over

And everybody’s dreamin' about playing in October

For the crack of the bat

The sun on my face; Cold beer with my friends

It’s time to play; And take the field again

And we’re all here to celebrate the crowning of our season

And we all know why we’re here, you’ve got us all believin'

Forget about the curses and stories

Leave behind the tales of past glories

Take it from a friend

Whose been there and back again

Sit right back and let the games begin

It’s Opening Day Today

Don’t let this memory slip away

The crack of the bat

The smell of the grass

It’s time we get out there and play
