A salute to Ike Davis, one of the ball-playing members of the tribe.
I’m getting called up in the morning!
Ding dong! The shofars are gonna blow real fine
Pull out the stopper!
Let’s have a (kosher) whopper!
But get me to Citifield on time!
I gotta be there in the mornin’
Spruced up with my cup aligned
Yids, come and bless me;
Bring choice salamis
But get me to Citifield on time!
If I want to hora, roll up the floor.
If I am dovening, close down my torah!
For I’m getting called up in the morning!
Ding dong! The shofars are gonna blow real fine
Wrap up my blintzes.
But don’t lose the Tzimmes
But get me to Citifield,
Get me to Citifield,
For Moses’ sake, get me to Citifield on time!
