On a grassy knoll they laid him down And I bet he's still grumbling underground On a diamond, that's where I remember him best Sticking his nose in an umpire's chest
'cause they're paid too much today Man, I know that's what leo would say And they need a kick in the ass 'cause nice guys finish last Nice guys finish last
The say hey kid's gonna miss you bad And I'm sure there were times when you made him mad He broke in the leagues back in '51 And you treated him like he was your son
'cause they're paid too much today Man, I know that's what leo would say And they need a kick in the ass 'cause nice guys finish last Nice guys finish last
You'd throw your tantrums like a little girl Got to see the shot heard around the world The pictures show you hugging bobby thompson's neck Back when they played the game for more than just a check

So let the critics say just what they will You gave us a pain and you gave us thrills And most of these jokers never played the game You were much too good for their hall of fame
'cause they're paid too much today Man, I know that's what leo would say And they need a kick in the ass 'cause nice guys finish last Nice guys finish last
On a grassy knoll they laid him down And I bet he's still grumbling underground
