about

On November 6th, 2016, I went down to Wrigley to take some pictures. What I saw there, inspired me to write this song. I hope you like it.

lyrics

Now to address the last dying request
Of a Cubs fan who passed and did not live to see
That day in November we’ll always remember
When the W’s topped every flagpole in Wrigley

And we’ll lift up our voices and let out a cheer
And sing all together and drink to our fathers
And to the one’s who couldn’t be here
Hey, hey! Believe it. This is the year.

To Harry and Ernie and Goodman and Moreland
Who left without seeing their boys win it all
To Brickhouse and Santo and each kid out on Waveland
Who waited for one to come over the wall.

And we’ll lift up our voices and let out a cheer
And sing all together and drink to our fathers
And to the one’s who couldn’t be here
Hey, hey! Believe it. This is the year.

This is the year! - To make a new start, man
This is the year! - Let’s bring home Bartman!
This is the year! - Our fortunes have shifted
This is the year!- The curse has been lifted!
This is the year! - It’s finally here

Hey, hey! Believe it. This is the year.

Many of these songs will make you jump around, but some swaying may also occur. If you are not devoid of basic decency, then you will most likely turn up the volume upon playing this so called record. There are no guarantees.
