The Otis Funkmeyer Band has been covering this tune for years but we were never quite sure of the lyrics, and it's really starting to bother me. What is the freakin' chorus???Won't happen in the next ball game,???????????????????????????????????We have our own idea, but I want to know what you guys think.Help!!!

    Won't happen in the next ball game,
    Must you hide
    and must you shame?


    Just a guess on that one, I'm curious to hear what y'alls interpretation is.

    I really like the other side of that record.

    Great tune. This is what i hear..

    Won't happen in the next ball game,
    much too hurt & much too 'shamed.

    When I first heard the song, I thought it was "must too high and must too safe", trying to keep with the song's "ball game" theme. Do the multi-tracks of that exist?

    If there ever was a song in need of remastering, this is the one. It sounds like it's recorded straight to cassette!
