Lyrics
LET PETEY IN
he showed us how to play the game the way it should be played/left it all out on the field/didn?t bitch about how much he made/we loved him and we hated him/but never did we doubt/that pete rose was trying to win until the final out/open up the door/let petey in/his punishment has gone on too long, you know/put charlie hustle in the hall of fame/c?mon mr. selig/and while we?re at it let?s make a room for shoeless joe/looking at the game today/where have the heroes all gone?/how about one of your lifetime bans for mcgwire and sosa and bonds/bigots and boozers, cheaters and juicers/with numbers you?d let ?em in/but four thousand hits ain?t good enough/when you bet on your own team to win/repeat chorus
