Hughes, Stepped Out Of A Dream

with apologies to Phil
Hughes, stepped out of a dream
You are again wonderful
The future ace of the team
You found that old fastball of yours
Now far less gopher balls of yours
Batters denied big hits from yours,
Honest and truly.
Hughes stepped out of a cloud,
We no longer want you traded away
You make us so proud
We want you all to ourselves,
A pitcher with heart
For our Yankee team
Every fifth day to start
