(David Munyon / S.P. Standley)

This song is a fun song, as we are all New York Yankees' Fans, when I was a boy my Dad took me and my brother Chet Jr. to see The New York Yankees' play baseball, we saw Mickey Mantle, Roger Marris, and Yogi Berra and Whitney Ford pitched nine complete Innings and Joe Pepitone play on First Base, it was one of the best days of my life... Baseball should be played everywhere, in every country.

If I had a million dollars
Richard „Sticks“ Stickley
I'd probably just give it all away
And I guess I'd have to have a secretary
To respond to all the love it would create

I been praying for the Yankees
I been trying to figure out all these dreams
I am numb from these Georgia Water Skiers
Who seem to take away, take away everything
I love the non-essential players
Ah...The ones who hardley get a chance to play
I been praying for the Yankees
And it's a cloudy summer day

Sammy called me just this morning
Said the wife was sending fax's on the sly
Bless her heart... she's from Alabama
And she's pretty; ah she's pretty as the Alabama skies

I been praying for the Yankees
I been trying to figure out all these dreams
I am numb from these Georgia Water Skiers
Who seem to take away, take away everything
I love the non-essential players
Ah...The ones who hardley get a chance to play
I been praying for the Yankees
And it's a cloudy summer day

I was at the great Assembly
The saints were happy sailing in the halls
I humbly asked the pastor and god
What is the reason.. What is the reason for it all
And they said „We been praying for the Yankees“...
