Lyrics
Oh, there used to be a ball park where the field was warm and green, and the people played a crazy game with a joy I've never seen.

How the people watched with wonder, how they laughed and how they cheered Yes, there used to be a ball park.... right here....

And the people ate rock candy on a great big 4th of July and the fireworks exploded all across the summer sky.

And the air was filled with wonder from the hot dogs and the beer Yes, there used to be a ball park... right here....

Now the children try to find it, and they can't believe their eyes For the old team isn't playing, and the new team hardly tries

And the sky has gotten cloudy when it used to be so clear and the summer....went so quickly... this year....

Yes, there used to be a ball park... right here....
