Lyrics
At the corner of Michigan and Trumbull
They played the game for a hundred years
All the great ones stood at home plate
With the crowd roaring in their ears
Then they tore it all down but the field itself
And the flagpole in center field
So a group of volunteers got together
And gave the vacant lot its old appeal
The Navin Field Grounds Crew
Went out and started mowing grass
Painting lines, staking bases
The cops said they trespassed
But now youth teams are playing
On the diamond Cobb and Ruth once knew
What a thrill for them and all the women and men
On the Navin Field Grounds Crew
We remember Gator sliding into second
With a hot dog in his shirt
We recall Reggie's blast off the tower
And how he dropped his bat in the dirt
We remember Gibson's homer off Gossage
Back in 1984
And some recall the way a kid named Williams
Won the All-Star game before the war
The Navin Field Grounds Crew
Went out and started mowing grass
Painting lines, staking bases
The cops said they trespassed
But now youth teams are playing
On the diamond Cobb and Ruth once knew
What a thrill for them and all the women and men
On the Navin Field Grounds Crew
What a thrill for them and all the women and men
On the Navin Field Grounds Crew
