’98 Braves

I remember sittin' at that house

Livin' room couch

Thinkin' no way them boys wouldn't win

Between them, big three pitchers

Andrew and chipper

It was gonna be hard to keep up with the Jones'

But as fate would have it

That Atlanta magic

Got put out by them damn Padres

I guess destiny

Ain't always meant to be

Kinda like you and me that day

We got close

But close doesn't cut it

Had a good run and end up with nothin'

But a three by five

That you hide in a drawer

We swung for the fences

And came up short

Yea, you win some and lose some

It ain't always home runs

And that's just the way life plays

If we were a team and love was a game

We'd been the '98 Braves

Had that whole town believin'

Damn girl, I even had that talk to your dad man to man

But just like that season

Girl, you and me didn't end with a ring on a hand

We got close

But close doesn't cut it

Had a good run and end up with nothin'

But a three by five

That you hide in a drawer

We swung for the fences

And came up short

Yea, you win some, you lose some

It ain't always home runs

And that's the way life plays

If we were a team and love was a game

We'd have been the '98 Braves

'98 Braves

You win some, you lose some

It ain't always home runs

Girl, it could've gone either way

But If we were a team and love was a game

We'd have been the '98 Braves

If we were a team and love was a game

We'd have been the '98 Braves

'98 braves

Aw yeah, girl, we'd have been the '98 braves

'98 braves

We'd have been the 98 braves

I remember sittin' at that house

Livin' room couch

Thinkin' no way them boys wouldn't win
