Josh Feels Good Tonight

 

When I moved to Pittsburgh I played ball night and day

When I moved to Pittsburgh baseball night and day

Now I’m the catching for the mighty Homestead Grays

 

I hit so many moonshots they call me the black Babe Ruth

I hit so many moonshots they call me the black Babe Ruth

I just have to laugh and say man ain’t that the truth

 

You know Josh feels good

Josh feels all right

You know Josh feels good

Josh feels all right

Josh feels good

Yeah Josh feels good tonight

 

When I get in a tight spot I flip up my ball cap

When I get in a tight spot I flip up my ball cap

I let the pitcher knows he in for a real big scrap

 

Satchel Paige said hey Josh come on over here

Satchel Paige said hey Josh come on over here

It’s ok to look back just as long as you don’t stare

 

Chorus

 

Popeye eats spinach I drink Iron City beer

Popeye eats spinach I drink Iron City beer

Helps me smack that horsehide way out of here

 

I’ve hit ‘em out of Wrigley I’ve hit ‘em out the Polo Grounds

I’ve hit ‘em out of Wrigley I’ve hit ‘em out the Polo Grounds

I hit ‘em so high that baseball never come down

 

 

Chorus

 

In the states we’re careful everywhere we go

In the states we’re careful everywhere we go

But they treat us like kings way down south in Mexico

 

Johnson, Leonard,  best who ever played this game

Charleston, Bell  the best who ever played this game

Maybe someday they’ll let us in that Hall of Fame

 

Chorus
