Mad Ruth / The Babe - Danny O'Keefe[00:00:00]

One day I was thinkin' 'bout the babe[00:00:11]

And the memories he left behind of the Old Ball Game[00:00:15]

Shame of it is they're almost gone[00:00:21]

But there're still a few pieces[00:00:25]

I can recall[00:00:28]

The catcher says to Ruth[00:00:31]

You know it's just a game[00:00:35]

You win you lose[00:00:38]

But it's all the same[00:00:41]

The babe would turn and say[00:00:45]

You know you're right[00:00:50]

But I still love to play[00:00:53]

And Ruth she turns to me[00:01:00]

And wonders where I am[00:01:05]

And where I'd be if she didn't care[00:01:07]

I return to Ruth to say[00:01:15]

You know I'd be all right[00:01:20]

But I'd still love to play[00:01:22]

The pitcher throws at Ruth[00:01:31]

He can't afford to miss[00:01:34]

He held the ball[00:01:38]

Like a stolen kiss[00:01:40]

And the babe just let it fly[00:01:45]

And apologized like he'd hurt the guy[00:01:50]

Mad Ruth just loves to bitch[00:01:59]

You can't afford the miss[00:02:04]

You make your deal[00:02:07]

As you steal a kiss[00:02:09]

And she never said goodbye[00:02:14]

She really loved the game[00:02:19]

She hardly knew the guy[00:02:21]

Mad Ruth you should have known the babe[00:02:34]

He loved the things he'd never had[00:02:43]

And he made you happy[00:02:48]

As he made you sad[00:02:51]

The babe here in my head[00:03:00]

Seems like he never left[00:03:04]

I heard the news like someone deaf[00:03:07]

It was nineteen-forty-eight[00:03:14]

He'd played a game[00:03:19]

But he'd made it great[00:03:21]

Mad Ruth sits on the couch[00:03:28]

In someone else's room[00:03:33]

I win you lose[00:03:36]

It's just a game she'll say[00:03:43]

You know she's right[00:03:48]

But I'd still love to play[00:03:50]

Mad Ruth you should have known the babe[00:04:03]

He loved the things he'd never had[00:04:12]

And he made you happy[00:04:17]

As he made you sad[00:04:20]

Mad Ruth you would have loved the babe[00:04:28]

She wanted things you never had[00:04:37]

And she made you happy[00:04:42]

Till she left you sad[00:04:45]

One evening I was thinkin' 'bout the babe[00:04:57]

And the memories she left behind[00:05:01]

Of the old ball game[00:05:02]

Shame of it is they're almost gone[00:05:06]

But there are still a few pieces I can recall[00:05:10]

Mad Ruth you should have known the babe[00:05:16]
