Текст Tom Paxton – You Should Have Seen Me Throw That Ball

I’d better flash that grin
It’s bound to win
Never misses when I turn it on
Though the kid’s getting old
What can you do
When it goes bad on you
You’d better run
Tell ‘em about the games you won
You should have seen me throw that ball
You should have seen me throw that ball
First and ten
Never run a play again
How’d I know
That was far as I would go
They’d buy me all my beer
They like to hear
How I fooled them I when I pulled my fake
They called me ‘Snake’
What can you do
When it goes bad on you
You’d better run
Tell ‘em about the games you won
You should have seen me throw that ball
You should have seen me throw that ball
I had it all
Why’d they have to drop the ball

Right on the nose
Bet I could have made the pros
I didn’t need my charm
When I had my arm
First and ten
Never run a play again
How’d I know
That was far as I would go
They’d buy me all my beer
They like to hear
How I fooled them I when I pulled my fake
They called me ‘Snake’
But what can you do
When it goes bad on you
You’d better run
Tell ‘em about the games you won
You should have seen me throw that ball
You should have seen me throw that ball
You should have seen me throw that ball
You should have seen me throw that ball
