Take Me Out to the Ball Game (1908): Baseball
Anthem Take me out to the ball
game, Take me out with the
crowd; Buy me some peanuts
and Cracker Jack, I don't care if I never get
back. Let me root, root, root
for the home team, If they don't win, it's a
shame. For it's one, two, three
strikes, you're out, At the old ball game.
