Did You See Jackie Robinson Hit That Ball

My Tribute to Jackie on the 60th Anniversary of his first major league game

Did you see Jackie Robinson hit that ball?

It went zoomin cross the left field wall.

Yeah boy, yes, yes. Jackie hit that ball.
And when he swung his bat,
 the crowd went wild,

Because he knocked that ball a solid mile.

Yeah boy, yes, yes. Jackie hit that ball.
Satchel Paige is mellow,

So is Campanella, 
Newcombe and Doby, too.

But it's a natural fact,
 when Jackie comes to bat,

The other team is through.
Did you see Jackie Robinson hit that ball?

Did he hit it? Yeah, and that ain't all.

He stole home.

Yes, yes, Jackie's real gone.
Did you see Jackie Robinson hit that ball?

Did he hit it? Yeah, and that ain't all.

He stole home.

Yes, yes, Jackie's a real gone guy
