Down At The Corner by The Tools of Ignorance

How I’d love to go to The Corner

Where the street is paved in bricks

To take the day to watch ‘em play

With the gloves, the ball and the sticks

Baseball fever risin’

Like a fastball under the chin

And as the record shows, only Heaven knows

If the hometown team will win

But that’s

Baseball

Down at The Corner

Michigan and Trumbull

Down at The Corner-

Imagine the Fun

This diamond destination

Is known around the world

And at the Hall of Fame,

they all know the name

Where pennants have unfurled

They know the overhang, the rooftop shots

And the centerfield flagpole too-

If you’ve got a love for the Grand Ol’ Game

I’ve got a very special place for you

They wouldn’t need to light a fuse

To see fireworks tonight

Not with left-handed hitting lineups

And a breeze blowin’ out to right

I’ll hear the sounds of the game

comin’ from the field

Like the crunch and the pop and the crack

If you don’t come along I will fill you in-

That’s if and when I ever get back

Meet me down at The Corner

Honey, let’s make it a date

I promise you a ball will be had by all

Once the man unlocks the gate

The CD comes in a handsome card-stock jacket showing a bustling destination that many a baseball fan will recognize. Listeners often enjoy reading the song lyrics on the back of the jacket while the song plays. This disc may hold keepsake appeal for baseball fans and collectors, while others may just wish it near the CD player.
