When Roger Maris hit Sixty One Homeruns
Nobody Smilied
Everybody thought it was a shame
Maris wasn't a true Yankee
He was no Babe Ruth
Alex Rodirguez was acquired
He is the Highest Payed
Yet is the scapegoat for Series loss.
People throw the term True Yankee around
I throw that term in the trash
New York doesn't apprecite having
One of the greats
He didn't develop in there system
He wasn't handed Gold Gloves on a Silver Platter
He isn't Mr. November
Yet he's a much better player
But New York is too ignorant
If Alex Rodriguez were to be traded to my team
I'd love him
And crave for more
He is an all time great
and no overrated sloutch
like Number 2
