(Long instrumental introduction of about a minute and a half)
Got a light hitting shortstop
Got a light hitting shortstop
I’ve got a light hitting shortstop
Swings the bat like he can't see
He’s just a light hitting shortstop
He’s lucky if he hits one-ninety-three
Take a pitch or two, baby
Take a pitch or two, baby
Yes, please take a pitch or two, baby
Maybe you’ll learn a walking trick
Just take a pitch or two, baby
And don’t ever swing your useless stick
(Instrumental interlude about 45 seconds)
Hope your glove is good, baby
I hope your glove is good, baby
Yes, I hope your glove is good, baby
You better not have hands of stone
Your hitting’s so bad
Hey shortstop, any day you might be gone
(Guitar riffs for about 2 minutes)
March 7, 2003: This song was inspired by a great musician named Carlos Santana, and a light-hitting shortstop from the 1980's named Rafael Santana, who have nothing in common but their surname.
