Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Dust on the backstop
Sun in my eyes
Old wooden bleachers
July in the sky
Granddad beside me
Scorecard in his hand
Telling me stories
’Bout the legends of this land
[Chorus]
Put me in the heart of the diamond
Where the white chalk cuts through green
Where a slow wind carries the waiting
And a swing can change everything
Yeah
This game’s gonna outlast our names
When the lights all fade and fall
’Cause baseball
Baseball
Baseball outlives us all
[Verse 2]
Radio crackling
Through wars and hard years
Voices from ballparks
Cutting through fear
Rain on the tarp
Or a twelve-run night
This old game’s given
Every shade of life
[Chorus]
Put me in the heart of the diamond
Where the white chalk cuts through green
Where a slow wind carries the waiting
And a swing can change everything
Yeah
This game’s gonna outlast our names
When the lights all fade and fall
’Cause baseball
Baseball
Baseball outlives us all
[Bridge]
Someday I’ll be stories
Fading in the stands (oh yeah)
Kids will still be running
With a glove on their hand
We come and go like seasons
But that first pitch still will fly
As long as there’s a summer
This game’ll never die
[Chorus]
Put me in the heart of the diamond
Where the white chalk cuts through green
Where a slow wind carries the waiting
And a swing can change everything
Yeah
This game’s gonna outlast our names
When the lights all fade and fall
’Cause baseball
Baseball
Baseball outlives us all
