5 on First

Number 5 on the back of that jersey Blond hair falling out of his hat Blue eyes same color as the ocean Got a smile you just had to smile back He had a lot about him Like nothing you could ever explain I'd do just about anything To see number 5 on first again So don't take life for granted And love the ones you love Cause you never know when you're gonna throw The last ball in your glove I know he's watching home runs from heaven If I was a betting man, I'd bet That I'ma see him there when I get upstairs, number 5 on first again Sometimes life hits like a curveball, on a bases loaded count It's all diamond rings and fields of dreams Till three strikes and you're out Heaven knows that I miss him But I'll see him round the bend I'd do just about anything To see number 5 on first again So don't take life for granted And love the ones you love Cause you never know when they're gonna throw The last ball in your glove I know he's watching home runs from heaven If I was a betting man I'd bet That I'ma see him there when I get upstairs Number 5 on first again Number 5 on first again I bet he's pulling up to the gates Got his Louisville race Pointed at the Hall of Fame He's gonna be the talk of the town If we were talking right now I know he'd say Don't take life for granted And love the ones you love Cause you never know when they're gonna throw The last ball in your glove I know he's watching home runs from heaven If I was a betting man, I'd bet That I'ma see him there when I get upstairs Number five on first again Buddy, I can't wait till I see that day Number 5 on first again Number 5 on first again
