The Lyrics
A 10-minute toss-off lamenting that last night's (4/3/2008) loss means my Nats'll have to settle for a 161-1 regular season record. Darn! :-)
"Ain't That A Shame"
It made me sigh seein’ Nats’s streak die
in their fourth game.
’Twasn’t bats to blame.
Ain’t that a shame?
A BB blew the game!
It broke my heart when a 5-run start
went down the drain.
But they tied again.
Ain’t that a shame?
A BB blew the game!
“Oh, well,” say I, today they’ll fly
to the mid-west plain
and win again.
Ain’t that a shame --
Cards'll try in vain?
St. Louie’s my birthplace but I
did not remain.
I moved away ’n’ –
ain’t that a shame? --
a Nats fan became.
I’ll yell tonight when Looper’s right
arm’s rendered tame
and Perez’s name,
like in 1st game,
ain’t got no shame.
It made me sigh seein’ Nats’s streak die
in their fourth game.
’Twasn’t bats to blame.
Ain’t that a shame?
A BB blew the game!
It broke my heart when a 5-run start
went down the drain.
But they tied again.
Ain’t that a shame?
A BB blew the game!
“Oh, well,” say I, today they’ll fly
to the mid-west plain
and win again.
Ain’t that a shame --
Cards'll try in vain?
St. Louie’s my birthplace but I
did not remain.
I moved away ’n’ –
ain’t that a shame? --
a Nats fan became.
I’ll yell tonight when Looper’s right
arm’s rendered tame
and Perez’s name,
like in 1st game,
ain’t got no shame.

I had to read your version of that old song since I liked Fats Domino. That beats "Take Me Out to the Ball Game".
good one...my beloved dodgers have only lost one themselves....the nats' new digs is bound to help them this year
5s alone for giving me a good laugh with the 161-1 comment as the opener :)
