Gene Clark Home Run King Lyrics

Home Run King Lyrics

E B E 
Well I saw it clear today that we were all more than only refugees 
B 
And the heads of state called out all of their reserves 
E 
So they could postpone World War III 
C#m B 
I can hear the morning crier yellin read all about it here`s the 
truth 
F#m A B E 
You are either just the newspaper boy or you`re either Babe Ruth 
E B 
Now how could we have been put upon this planet 
E 
Fools enough to think that we could be 
B E 
The first to form a civilized envolvement from the charismatic sea 
C#m 
There`s a ten year old in the alley 
B 
Throws a hard ball off the wall that is the truth 
F#m A B E 
He knows you`re either just the newspaper boy or you`re either Babe 
Ruth 
 
The home run king 
 
SOLO 
 
B 
We can all dream up some explicit rationalized dream 
E 
Of exactly who we are 
B 
While the rockin rolling home run king 
E 
Keeps the black madonna sleepin with a star 
C#m 
Now it doesn`t matter how much bread you can spend 
B 
So you can hold the center booth 
F#m A B E 
You are either just the newspaper boy or you`re either Babe Ruth
