Rockford
Peaches Song
(As remembered
by Mary Pratt, 2010)
Verse 1:
Oh, we hail from Rockford, Illinois.
It's just across the line.
We're not too old.
We're not too young.
In fact, we're in our prime.
Oh, we hit
the ball with might and main.
In fielding we are fast.
We are the Rockford ball club.
We always dress in class.
Chorus:
Oh, yes we are.
Oh, yes we are.
The Rockford baseball team.
Oh, yes we are.
Oh, yes we are.
The Rockford baseball team.
Verse 2:
Oh, we never kick the gang around.
We're always on our toes.
Not only in the ball park,
but when we're with our beaux.
Oh, we're all in bed by 10 O'clock.
That is a dirty lie.
We are the Rockford ball club,
Our motto, "do or die".
(Repeat
Chorus)
Verse 3:
Oh, our chaperone her name is Timm.
She takes good care of us,
She waits on us in every way,
and never makes a fuss.
She always has a pleasant smile.
A way that's hard to beat.
She is a perfect pal to us,
No better could we meet.
(Repeat
Chorus) |
