So this is what I was hearing Rob and Kay. Suggestions, help etc welcome
The Farm Team
Lazy days of summer brings our team out on the field
Everyone has favourite players getting all their cheers
on our own back forty farmer’s field of diamond dreams
every soul for miles around is jammed into the seats
Cows ain't chewin’ tobacco, far too busy with their cud
Chasing after flies and grounders scoop them in their gloves
Gus the Goose is rounding first he's flapping down the line
Where Bill the Bull is waiting for him squarely in his sights
chorus
chickens all have flown the coop, barn doors closed too late
when cows come home they will have shown they're not too slow to play
they're all on the back forty shagging flies like stubborn mules
you gotta love the farm team playing the all American game
The ump was calling balls and strikes his glasses on the fritz
Safes and outs were thrown about when anybody hit
Ducks quacked from the sidelines, dawdling waddlers dropping doos
T-bone adds some action to his slider with manure
everyone's got a role to play except the barnyard cat
she’s too busy sleeping, chasing mice, and the flying kind of bat
Billy Goat headbutts balls then kicks his can and runs
Thumper gets to hop to first it's hard to find his zone
No one wants to hit to shortstop everybody fears
The trusty family dog who's been shagging flies for years
chorus
chickens all have flown the coop, barn doors closed too late
when cows come home they will have shown they're not too slow to play
they're all on the back forty shagging flies like stubborn mules
you gotta love the farm team playing the all American game
there's only one place better on a lazy afternoon
that's with the farm team on the road to play the local zoo
