Lyrics

THE KICKBALL SONG
(Papageorge)

Remember when you were just a kid way back in fifth grade
Learning how to play the game that your best friends played
Well, it only took a time or two
Till you were meeting everyday after school
Now the game that you loved back then is back again today

CHORUS:
EVERYBODY LOVES KICKBALL
EVERYBODY LOVES KICKBALL
When the sun is out and the sky is blue
There's nothing else that I would rather do
Than play kickball
EVERYBODY LOVES KICKBALL

Well, I'm way out here in left field 'cause there's a Big Kid up
We're playin' in a tournament game for the Founder's Cup
Now, that red ball's flyin'at me
I make the winning catch down on my knees
Well, whoever said having fun had to be kid stuff?

Repeat CHORUS

BRIDGE:
And when the game is over and the cheers have all died down
We'll head on over to Kelly's and have a few rounds

Repeat CHORUS
