Lorraine Feather - Hit the Ground Runnin'
текст песни

Music, Russell Ferrante/
Lyrics, Lorraine Feather

It's almost unbelievable
But the New Year's here again.
Time to pump our mood,
Get unglued from ESPN,
Our goals are still achievable,
But we gotta get back in the game.
Play ball!
Let's make it to the Hall of Fame!
We're in a must-win situation,
Back from the brink of elimination.
You and me, baby,
Gonna hit the ground runnin'
Lookin' at the numbers, we've been slippin'
Smartin' from a nasty woodshed whippin'.
Still got a good shot
If we hit the ground runnin'.
We're gonna get our fastball workin';
We're gonna throw some serious heat.
Won't see the opposition smirkin'
When we knock 'em outa the driver's seat.
Even though we took a true shellackin',
This'll be the year we come out whackin!'
5
Oo wee, honey,
Gonna hit the ground runnin'.
It was a shock
When life started cleaning our clock.
We've struggled offensively,
Flying blind,
And our defense
Was also maligned...
Out-muscled, out-hustled,
We've been saddled with injuries.
Gotta tighten up the line of scrimmage,
Give a hundred and ten percent,
Brighten up our image
After the regrettable away-game incident,
But-headin' to the end zone, that'll be you!
Proud to be the one I pass it to!

Oh my, big guy,
Gonna hit the ground runnin'.

We're in a must-win situation;
Need to stop the dribble penetration.
You and me, baby,
Gonna hit the ground runnin'.
Red-hot, givin' it all we got,
We live 'n' die by the outside shot.
We're so up-tempo
When we hit the ground runnin'.
We're gonna dominate the floorboards,
Though we've been quiet so far,
Light up a million scoreboards.
Together we're a shooting star!
Get ready for a
Nail-biter, barn burner,
Game of inches, a real head-turner.
Eyes on the prize, nose for the ball,
This time we're gonna take it all;
We're gonna stay focused on the dream,
Remember that there's no "I" in "TEAM."
Let's get out there and just have fun!
I've got the heart of a champion.
You've got a great pair of hands.

This year
They're gonna be screaming in the stands,
If we can
Hit the ground runnin',
Hit the ground runnin'!
"You know, Bob, I'm just happy I was able to
make a contribution."
