Letras
[Intro]
This glove's really cool, wow!
Oh, why don't you take it?
Oh, no, no, I couldn't
Why not?
Are you sure?
[Verse 1]
I bought this glove a thousand years ago
For some birthday or some Christmas that has come and gone
I thought we might play catch or, I don't know
But he left it in the bag with the tag still on
[Verse 2]
You'll have to break it in though, first
You can't catch anything with it that stiff
Uh, how do you break it in?
[Verse 3]
Well, it's all a process that is really quite precise
A sort of secret method known to very few
So, if you're in the market for professional advice
Well, today could be a lucky day for you
[Verse 4]
Shaving cream!
Shaving cream?
Oh yeah!
You rub that in for about five minutes
Tie it all up with rubber bands
Put it under your mattress, and sleep on it
And you do that for at least a week, every day, consistent
[PreChorus]
And though this method isn't easy
Every second that you spend is gonna pay off
It'll pay off in the end
[Chorus]
It just takes a little patience
It takes a little time
A little perseverance
And a little uphill climb
You might not think it's worth it
You might begin to doubt
But you can't take any shortcuts
You gotta stick it out
And it's the hard way
But it's the right way
The right way to break in a glove
[Verse 5]
With something like this, you gotta be ready to put in the work
And make the commitment
So what do you think?
I mean, definitely!
[Verse 6]
Some people say just use a microwave
Or try that "run it through hot water" technique
Well, they can gloat about the time they saved
Till they gotta buy another glove next week
[Chorus]
It just takes a little patience (It takes a little patience)
Takes a little time (Takes a little time)
A little perseverance (Perseverance)
And a little uphill climb
And it's the hard way
But it's the right way
The right way
[Bridge]
'Cause there's a right way in everything you do
Keep that grit (Keep that grit)
Follow through
Even when everyone around you thinks you're crazy
Even when everyone around you lets things go
Whether you're prepping for some test
Or you're miles from some goal
Or you're just trying to do what's best
For a kid who's lost control
[Chorus]
You do the hard thing
'Cause that's the right thing
Yeah, that's the right thing
[Verse 7]
Connor was really lucky to have a dad that-
A dad who cared so much about taking care of stuff
Shaving cream, rubber bands, mattress, repeat
Got it?
Got it
[Outro]
It's the hard way
But it's the right way
The right way to break in a glove
You're good to go
