Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Pick me up
Fill my cup
Pour me another round
Come on in, mix in the sin
Come in and join the crowd
I said it’s party time
When I’m on the loose
Listen, drinks all around
I’m in the mood
Because the night is mine
Let’s play ball
Shoot it down the wall
Let’s play ball, baby
Battin’ down the stalls
Play, play, play ball
Listen Sid, light me up
I’m in love
I’m all regional now
Dive on in and swim in the gin
Come on, shout it out loud
Let’s play ball
Shoot it down the wall, yeah
Let’s play ball
Battin’ down the stalls, yeah
Play, play, play ball
Let’s play ball
Shootin' down the wall
Let’s play ball
And never stall
Let’s play ball
Let’s play ball
Let’s play ball
Play, play, play ball
