Del Reeves Philadelphia Fillies Lyrics

Philadelphia Fillies Lyrics

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...
