When he was a kid, he'd be up at 5, take shots to 8, make the
thing drive
Out after school, back on ice, that was his life, he was
gonna play in the
Big League Ooooh, in the
Big League.
Not many ways out of this cold northern twn, u work in the mill & get
laid in the ground
If ur gonna jump it will be with the game, real fast & tough is the
only clear lane to the
Big League Ooooooh
My boy's gonna play in the big league, my boy's gonna turn some heads,
My boy's gonna play in the big league, my boy's gonna knock 'em dead
..
Ooooooo, in the Big League
[]
All the right moves when he turned 18, scholarship and school on a big
US team
Out with his girl near Lake McLean, hit a truck doing 70 in the wrong
lane to the
Big League Oooooooooooo
My boy's going to play in the BL, my boy's going to turn some heads,
my boy's going to play in the BL, my boy's going to knock 'em dead ..
Never can tell what might come down, never can tell how much you got,
Just don't know, no, you never can tell, [guitar only]

Sometimes at nite u can hear the ice crack, it sounds like thunder &
it rips thru my back
S'times in the morning I still hear the sound, ice meets metal, "Can't
you drive me down to the
BL?" OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
My boy's going to play in the BL my boy's going to turn some heads
my boy's going to play in the BL, my boy's going to knock 'em dead
Never can tell what might come down, never can tell when u might check
out
Just don't know, no, you never can tell, so do right to others like u
do to yourself in the
Big League. OOOOOOO
