Well I'm sitting here a thinking about those Philadelphia Fillies
|
And some may think I'm talking bout baseball
|
But I'm talking about the ones that wear them dresses on so pretty
|
And the way they swing should be against the law
|
|
There's a lot of dangerous curves in that beautiful city
|
Oh but you'll never see no warning signs
|
And if you want to get right down to the nitty-gritty
|
You can bat a thousand every time
|
|
I met a Yankee in New York and I love an Angel out in LA
|
But those Philadelphia Fillies tore my mind apart
|
And this Giant's leaving Frisco today
|
[ guitar - steel ]
|
There's some nice looking twins up in Minnesota
|
And Atlanta's got a brave girl or two
|
And I cuddled a cubby in old Chicago
|
But Philadelphia I'm a coming back to you
|
|
I met a Yankee in New York...
|
|
Well I'm sitting here a thinking about those Philadelphia Fillies...
|
There's some nice looking twins up in Minnesota...
