Angels Of Fenway - James Taylor[00:00:00]
86 summers gone by[00:00:07]
Bambino put a hex on the Bean[00:00:10]
We were living on a tear and a sigh[00:00:13]
In the shadow of the Bronx machine[00:00:16]
Man, you could feel it smoulder[00:00:19]
Whole town had an attitude[00:00:22]
Then you'd get a little chip on your shoulder[00:00:25]
Say something that's downright rude[00:00:28]
Oh, damn them Yankees[00:00:32]
Outspending everybody two to one[00:00:34]
Picking up on the cream of the crop[00:00:38]
Stealing everyone's favorite son[00:00:41]
Angels of Fenway[00:00:45]
Hear our prayer[00:00:49]
We have been chastened[00:00:51]
We have been patient[00:00:54]
Grandmama was a Fenway fan[00:00:57]
Even after Grandad died[00:01:00]
I still remember her holding my hand[00:01:03]
Taking me along for the ride[00:01:07]
She was born in 1918[00:01:09]
Last year that the Red Sox won[00:01:13]
Back then when they sold the Babe[00:01:16]
Something that they never should've ever have done[00:01:19]
Hey Nanna can I have another Coke[00:01:25]
Here comes the hot dog man[00:01:28]
Look at that, his bat just broke[00:01:31]
Gee, that's got to kill his hand[00:01:35]
Riding home on the Green Line[00:01:38]
Watching the town go by[00:01:41]
Nanna made another Red Sox fan[00:01:44]
'Til the day I die[00:01:47]
That was back in 65[00:01:51]
Doesn't seem like a long time ago[00:01:54]
Grandmama keeping hope alive[00:01:57]
Watched them win in double O4[00:02:00]
Oh my God, it was beyond belief[00:02:03]
Down three, needing four in a row[00:02:06]
Holding on by the skin of our teeth[00:02:09]
Like a hungry dog on a bone[00:02:12]
Angels of Fenway[00:02:16]
Give them peace[00:02:20]
They have been patient[00:02:22]
Red Sox Nation[00:02:26]
The whole world held it's breath[00:02:28]
People got down on their knees[00:02:32]
Ready for the sudden death[00:02:35]
Praying to heaven for hell to freeze[00:02:37]
Nanna watched from her hospital bed[00:02:41]
She was there 'til the end of the race[00:02:44]
I couldn't hear the last words she said[00:02:47]
But she was lying there with a smile on her face[00:02:49]
Just a little smile on her face[00:02:57]
It doesn't feel like a long time ago[00:03:03]
