Night Game Lyrics
There were two men down
And the score was tied
In the bottom of the eight
When the pitcher died
And they laid his spikes
On the pitcher's mound
And his uniform was torn
And his number was left on the ground
Then the night turned cold
Colder than the moon
The stars were white as bones
The stadium was old
Older than the screams
Older than these teams
There were three men down
And the season lost
And the tarpaulin was rolled
Upon the winter frost
And the score was tied
In the bottom of the eight
When the pitcher died
On the pitcher's mound
And his uniform was torn
And his number was left on the ground
Colder than the moon
The stars were white as bones
The stadium was old
Older than the screams
Older than these teams
And the season lost
And the tarpaulin was rolled
Upon the winter frost

why does this song have no comments! brilliant.. love it.. love everything about it.. the way he says "the stars were white as bones"..
Very nice song - don't know the story behind it...... I guess he is literally saying the pitcher died during a game and describing the eeriness of the deserted stadium
