Playing baseball, I love playing baseball.
Playing baseball is what I love to do.
Out there on the playing field,
Both my bat and glove I wield.
Swing the bat; catch the ball.
Swing the bat; catch the ball.
I love it all!
Playing baseball, I love playing baseball.
Playing baseball is what I love to do.
When I have the chance to play,
I could stay outside all day.
Swing the bat; hit the ball.
Keep your eye on the ball.
There it goes; catch the ball.
I love it all!
Playing baseball, I love playing baseball.
Playing baseball is what I love to do.
