Little boy settles in over the plate,
Crosses himself, crouches and waits,
Hush hush, stay quiet this time!
Jose Altuve is getting his sign.
God bless my Astros, all are great mates
To tell me what to expect at the plate.
God bless Coach Cora, and Carlos Beltran,
And God bless Gatorade for supplying the can.
Tapping the bat on the side of his cleats,
Adjusting his cup, his collar, his teats,
Hush hush, don’t say a word!
Jose Altuve’s expecting a curve.
It’s such wonderful tech that allows us to see
What the next pitch is likely to be.
God bless those geeks, whoever they be,
Of course, most of all, God bless me.
Little boy lines up the ball in his sight,
Little boy swings with all of his might!
To his reps please direct your inquiries–
Jose Altuve helped steal a World Series.
