Oh give me a clone
Just like David Cone
And I'll show you a winner, my friend
His pitching is great
And I'm sure it's his fate
To be in Cooperstown in the end.
Cone, Cone on the hill
He's a hero in each park he played
He gets hitters out
And he leaves little doubt
That he's one of the best in the game.
When he pitched for the Mets
He brought out the coneheads
Who would come out to cheer him at Shea
In the years since gone by
He's made AL teams fly
And we all cheer for Conie today.
Cone, Cone on the hill
He's a hero in each park he played
He gets hitters out
And he leaves little doubt
That he's one of the best in the game.
On a hot afternoon
In the month after June
As he stood on the mound in the sun
Twenty seven came up
Twenty seven went down
And he had his perfecto when done.
Cone, Cone on the hill
He's a hero in each park he played
He gets hitters out
And he leaves little doubt
That he's one of the best in the game.
He gets hitters out
And he leaves little doubt
That he's one of the best in the game.
July 29, 1999: David Cone has been a great pitcher for more than a decade with the Mets, Blue Jays, Royals, and Yankees. This was written shortly after he pitched a perfect game.
