Danny Rockett - Coming Back to Wrigley 03:38
lyrics
buy track
(Intro) G-em-C-am (Verse) G-em-C-am 2x I’m going back to Wrigley with a ticket in my hand. No ring upon my finger because I am just a fan. G-C G-am And I spent most my money on sausages and beer G- em- D And I was there when they won it last year. (Verse 2) Pressured anticipation had the city tightly wrought With a 5-3 combination as the sailing ball was caught Half a dozen generations who had lived to see the day The Cubs would take the season all the way (Chorus 1) E----C----E7 2x We’re coming back to Wrigley We’re coming back to Wrigley E- C Where the ivy will start growin G- am D And the April winds are blowing out today (Verse 3) The conquerors in triumph bring the foreign trophy home Like old Caesar on the Appian way back in Ancient Rome While the cities of the vanquished have to turn around and look As history’s inscribed into the books (Chorus 2) We’re coming back to Wrigley We’re coming back to Wrigley They’ll be no talk of losing As the bleacher bums are boozing by the flags (Verse 3) We’ll pay more for the peanuts, we’ll pay more for the beer We’re paying for the players that can win another year. If that’s the cost of winning. The Cubs can take it all. Just keep on having fun and playing ball (Chorus 3) We’re coming back to Wrigley We’re coming back to Wrigley (E--C----G-----am) Yeah we’re all a little tougher So let’s just go win another one Yeah we’re all a little tougher So let’s just go win another one Yeah we’re all a little tougher So let’s just go win another one Yeah we’re all a little tougher So let’s just go win another one (We’re Coming Back to Wrigley)

Heyward's New Swing 01:56
lyrics
buy track
Heyward’s been rolling out to second base Seems like he did it all year Or he gets under and hits a pop fly At least his speeches are great But Heyward has found A new swing and he says I can hit! Time to put on a show! I’ve straightened my bat and I’ve opened my stance It’ll quicken my hands through the zone...it’s Heyward’s new swing, better speed Heyward’s new swing, he’ll succeed! Brett Taylor said Jay Hey looks like Rizzo From the way that he’s holding his hands Moving more freely, rotating his hips with the swing It’s in on the fists he can pull Down the line Cause he’s Better at shifting his weight Heyward won’t roll out to second anymore Which would really be freaking great Heyward’s new swing, better speed Heyward’s new swing, he’ll succeed!

I Wish That I Was Tom Ricketts 01:02
lyrics
buy track
I’d fly around in private Jets With Tom Ricketts money I’d buy Syndergaard from the Mets With Tom Ricketts money If I was Tom, I’d own the Cubs Only front row ticket stubs What I would do with a billion bucks If I had Tom’s money Oh, I wish that I was Tom Ricketts I would be swimming in cash I wish that I was Tom Ricketts 'Cause I could buy and sell your ass. Pay Shohei Otani to wear Cubbie blue And next year get Bryce Harper too Then I’d raise prices for tickets!

Guess We'll Just Wait Till Next Year 01:17
lyrics
buy track
We had Lester and Hendricks and Jake Arrieta Rizzo and Bryant, we should have played better The Cubs lost this fall Now they’re not the champs of baseball Guess we’ll just wait till next year So I’m just watching Hot Stove 2 starters and a bullpen Wonder who is gonna close? Who’s Theo gonna bring here? Jake is gonna go get paid. Maybe we’ll get a starter In a Happ or Schwarber trade! I bet Mike Montgomery Pitches a few games He’s a number 4 or 5 Cubs need more at playoff time Theo should give Joe Maddon Players like 20-16 Then we’ll all wait till Next year And we’ll win the World Series

I Saw Willson DM Khalifa While his hamstring wasn’t feeling right Willson wants to be her man Said he was her biggest fan Sure his leg was hurt but there was nothing wrong with his right hand A guy like Willson DM’s Khalifa But no Cubbie Fans Should wonder why Willson slid into her DM’s Cause he likes naked women On Mia Khalifas Porn Website

To Morrow! To Morrow! A contract To Morrow And now for the Cubs he’ll play

Dumb Hawk Harrelson 03:12
lyrics
buy track
Hawk’s calling White Sox games on the South Side of town, but now He won’t come to Wrigley Field cause Hawk Hates the Cubs It’s just a can of corn Can’t stand Joe West or Bud Selig Bashing the umpires, Hawk’s such a homer Hate when he says you can put it on the board yes, Oh my! He’s just a dumb Hawk Harrelson Dumb Hawk Harrelson, Dumb Hawk Harrelson He’s just a dumb Hawk Harrelson Oh my! He’s just a dumb Hawk Harrelson No one likes Hawk Harrelson I’d really hate my life if I was Steve Stone He must want to rip off his ears When Hawk says “Stretch” and yells “He Gone” Oh my! He’s just a dumb Hawk Harrelson Dumb Hawk Harrelson, Dumb Hawk Harrelson He’s just a dumb Hawk Harrelson Oh my! He’s just a dumb Hawk Harrelson Says “Dagummit” when it’s not a homer Calls a broken bat single a Matt Abbatacola “Sit Back Relax and Strap it Down” he’ll say It’s the same thing every single damn day (I think the Hawk is so annoying) Shouting mercy, gotta be bleepin me Big hack no contact and can of corn Criticizing umpires, Hawk doesn’t like the call He hates the North Side and won’t come to Wrigley Hawks not welcome in the friendly confines Stay down south with your stupid phrases In the broadcast booth is where the Hawk wants to die Oh my! He’s just a dumb Hawk Harrelson Dumb Hawk Harrelson, Dumb Hawk Harrelson He’s just a dumb Hawk Harrelson Oh my! He’s just a dumb Hawk Harrelson Oh my! He’s just a dumb Hawk Harrelson Dumb Hawk Harrelson, Dumb Hawk Harrelson He’s just a dumb Hawk Harrelson Oh my! He’s just a dumb Hawk Harrelson Oh my! He’s just a dumb Hawk Harrelson Dumb Hawk Harrelson, Dumb Hawk Harrelson He’s just a dumb Hawk Harrelson Oh my! He’s just a dumb Hawk Harrelson
