I don't want to be Babe Ruth. He was a great ballplayer. I'm not trying to replace him. The record is there and damn right I want to break it, but that isn't replacing Babe Ruth.

Don't compare me to Babe Ruth. God gave me the opportunity and the ability to be here at the right time, at the right moment, just like he gave Babe Ruth when he was playing. I just hope I can keep doing what I've been doing - keep taking care of business.

Reading isn't good for a ballplayer. Not good for his eyes. If my eyes went bad even a little bit I couldn't hit home runs. So I gave up reading.
Babe Ruth was great. I'm just lucky.

The Babe was a great ballplayer, sure, but Cobb was even greater. Babe could knock your brains out, but Cobb would drive you crazy.

Go For It
Everybodys wasting time
Everybody stands in line
Think of babe ruth
And you think of hot dogs and beer
But if he could hit a home run so could you
And your weight is just nowhere near
Am I making myself quite clear?
Is that the best you can do?
Go for it, go for it, go for it, go for it
If thats the best you can do
Get out of my place
Take anyones place
Come last in the race, but
Go for it, go for it, go for it, go for it
The clock is ticking on the wall
Everybody has to take a fall
Think of ray charles
And you think of sunglasses at night
But if he can play piano so can you
And you can tell black from white
Can you tell me that Im not right?
Is that the best you can do?
Go for it, go for it, go for it, go for it
If thats the best you can do
Get out of my life
Be anyones life
And do what you like, but
Go for it, go for it, go for it, go for it
Go for it, go for it, go for it, go for it
Go for it, go for it, go for it, go for it
Go for it, go for it, go for it, go for it
Think of babe ruth
And you think of hot dogs and beer
But if he could hit a home run so could you
And your weight is just nowhere near
Am I making myself quite clear?
Is that the best you can do?
Go for it, go for it, go for it, go for it
If thats the best you can do
Get out of your shell, be anyones pal
Do bad or do well, but
Go for it, go for it, go for it, go for it

I Got A Line On You
Yeah.
Oh yeah, come on.
Now, let me take you babe, down to the river bed
Well, I got to tell you something
That'll go right through your head
I got a line on you babe
[I got a line on you babe]
Yeah, I got a line on you
[I got a line on you babe]
Come on.
Now, put your arms around me, every little bit of your love
Oh, you know what to do, I'll make love to you
You got the right stuff, and I do too
I got a line on you babe
[I got a line on you babe]
Yeah, I got a line on you
[I got a line on you babe]
Yeah!
Got my eye on you babe, on your velvet skin
I wanna put my hands were they've never been
Get real hot in the midnight steam
Soaking in the rain of my favorite dream
Your lips are red, the moon is blue
I only ask you once what you want to do
Gonna touch you babe 'til the night is through
Look out honey, got a line on you
Oh yeah.
Oh, now the winter's almost over,
The summer she's coming on strong.
Oh I could love you, love you, love you, love you all year long
I got a line on you babe
[I got a line on you babe]
Yeah, I got a line on you
[I got a line on you babe]
Ah yeah!
I got a line on you babe
[I got a line on you babe]
Yeah, I got a line on you
Yeah, yeah, yeah!
I got a line on you babe
[I got a line on you babe]
I got a line on you
I got a line on you babe.

Who is richer? The man who is seen, but cannot see? Or the man who is not being seen, but can see?
You just can't beat the person who never gives up.
Never let the fear of striking out get in your way.

babe's are so blind...by Talile Ali
babe's like treachery
babe's like greed
babe's like being abused
allowing bad men to seed
babe's are intelligent
babes are kind
babe's are evil
when their man's loving not kind
i don't understand the reason
i don't even have the rhyme
maybe it's just the season
don't know why babe's are so pragmatically blind
babe's are lazy
babe's are feared
babe's will do what
a man won't for years
babe's are somethin else
that there's a fact
as final as prison
as deadly as smack
i don't understand the reason
i don't even have a rhyme
maybe it's just the season
don't know why babe's are so blind

Her: they say were young and we dont know we wont find out until we grow
Him: well I dont know if all thats true cause you got me, and baby I got you
.
Him: babe
Both: I got you babe I got you babe
.
Her: they say our love wont pay the rent before its earned, our moneys all been spent
Him: I guess thats so, we dont have a pot but at least Im sure of all the things we got
.
Him: babe
Both: I got you babe I got you babe
.
Him: I got flowers in the spring I got you to wear my ring
Her: and when Im sad, youre a clown and if I get scared, youre always around
Her: so let them say your hairs too long cause I dont care, with you I cant go wrong
Him: then put your little hand in mine there aint no hill or mountain we cant climb
.
Him: babe
Both: I got you babe I got you babe
.
Him: I got you to hold my hand
Her: I got you to understand
Him: I got you to walk with me
Her: I got you to talk with me
Him: igot you to kiss goodnight
Her: I got you to hold me tight
Him: I got you, I wont let go
Her: I got you to love me so
.
Both: I got you babe I got you babe I got you babe I got you babe I got you babe

Baseball was, is and always will be to me the best game in the world.
If I'd just tried for them dinky singles I could've batted around .600.
Cobb is a prick. But he sure can hit. God Almighty, that man can hit.
How about a little noise. How do you expect a man to putt?
Baseball changes through the years. It gets milder.
Every strike brings me closer to the next home run.
I have only one superstition. I touch all the bases when I hit a home run.
