Three Strikes You're Out
Lyrics
Three Strikes You're Out

Batter up, you're into your stance
Making my pitch baby
Hoping to get a chance
With a girl, as sweet as sweet can be
The scouting reports said baby
You knew how to swing
What a way to spend a summer
Just don't forget these numbers
One, Two, Three
Three strikes you're out
Three strikes you're out babe
Those are the rules
Ain't gonna be your fool

I always hoped, it'd end in a tie
Joining us together
There was some other guy
You played at home while I was away
He slid across the dish while I was stranded at second base
What a way to treat a lover
Step out against some other
One, Two, Three
Three strikes you're out
Three strikes you're out babe
Those are the rules
Three strikes you're out babe
Those are the rules

Description
Short Song Description:
Fun summertime Pop-Soul number with a feel somewhere between The Beatles, Motown and Funk-Soul. I thought it would be fun to write a romantic song using terminology from that ultimate hot moment killer - baseball.
