A holiday song: "We Need Some Rangers Baseball Now"
It's time for my annual (poorly parodied) Rangers Christmas carol. This year's inspiration is "We Need a Little Christmas." Enjoy. Or roll your eyes. Whichever works for you.
Push play on this video (the "Glee" version was the closest to my lyrics) and read along ...
We Need Some Rangers Baseball Now
Haul out the Holland
Throw out that pitch before my spirit falls again
Pick up the Boomstick
I may be rushing things but, hit that ball again now
For we need some Rangers baseball
Right this very minute
Maddux in the bullpen
Wash is in the dugout
Yes, we need some Rangers baseball
Right this very minute
We haven’t gone to Arizona
But JD, dude, we’re counting on ya
So bring us some signings
Put up the biggest list of bats we’ve ever seen
Serve up some pitching
It’s time to bring that title back to Arlington now
For I’ve grown a little meaner
Grown a little harsher
Grown a little sadder
Grown a little bothered
And I need our ninja GM
Bolstering the roster
I need some Rangers baseball now
Haul out the Nefti
He leaves the ‘pen before we get to Opening Day
No need for new gloves
For Adrian Beltre it’s just a routine infield play now
But we need some Rangers baseball
Right this very minute
Kindrus up the middle
Napoli at home plate
Yes, we need some Rangers baseball
Right this very minute
The weather is all cold and dreary
So Nolan, man, we’re in a hurry
So bring out the Hambone
To hit the longest home runs we have ever seen
Let’s see Ogando
Keep right up with Colby and Harrison now
For we need a little pitching,
Need a little offense
Need a little defense
Need all of it often
And we need another Series
This time a happy ending
We need some Rangers baseball now.
We need some Rangers baseball now.
