I'm Sure Glad This Isn't My Home

You Got To Play A Hundred And Fifty Games A Year, So Pick Your Spots. You Can Miss Two Games A Month; So Pick The Days You're Gonna Be Hurt, Or You're Gonna Rest Or You're Gonna Have A Drink Or Two. The Rest Of The Time, Be On That Field.

Baseball Needs Me Because It Needs Somebody To Stir The Pot, And I Need It Because It's My Life. It's The Means I Have To Make A Little Difference In The World.

I Never Smile When I Have A Bat In My Hands. That's When You've Got To Be Serious.

The First Thing Baseball Wants To Do Is Make You A Superstar And Then Say That You Owe Baseball Something. I Don't Owe Baseball Anything. Baseball Owes Me.

I Played Sometimes About As Dull As You Can Play It. I Did Things The Right Way, You Know. I Think I Modeled My Playing Ability After One Of The All Time Greats, Joe Dimaggio. You Always Found Joe, When He Played, You Know, He Always Threw To The Right Base. He Ran, He Caught The Ball. He Did All The Right Things. He Was An Idol Of Mine In The Outfield. He Played The Game The Way It Was Supposed To Be Played.
