Lyrics[]
- Lurleen:
- Oh, the bases were empty
- On the diamond of my heart
- When the coach called me up to the plate.
- I've been swingin' and missin'
- And lovin' and kissin'
- My average was point double eight.
- So I spit on my hands,
- Knockin' dirt from my spikes,
- And pointed right toward centerfield,
- This time, I'm hittin' a home run,
- This time, love is for real.
- I'll slide, I'll steal, I'll sacrifice
- A lovin' fly for you,
- I've been slumpin' off season,
- But now, I found a reason
- I've struck on a love that is true.
- I used to play the field,
- I used to be a roamer.
- But season's turnin' round for me now.
- I finally bagged me a Homer!
- That's right.
- I finally bagged me a Homer!
- Sound booth guy:
- Uh, Lurleen, we're gonna have to cut you off. We're gettin' some kinda grindin' noise on the track.
- (Marge grinding her teeth in fury)
