[00:00:00] The Bellyache Heard 'round the World - Chuck Brodsky

[00:00:01] Composed by：Charles Ira Brodsky

[00:00:07] He showed up for Spring training

[00:00:10] With 40 pounds to lose

[00:00:15] He'd spent the Winter partying

[00:00:18] But that was never news

[00:00:22] He wasn't feeling all that good

[00:00:26] Throughout the training camp

[00:00:29] The babe would run a fever

[00:00:32] And he often had the cramps

[00:00:38] After leaving florida

[00:00:41] On the way back to New York

[00:00:44] The yankees played the Brooklyn robins

[00:00:49] On an exhibition tour

[00:00:53] They stopped in chattanooga

[00:00:56] The babe hit 2 home runs

[00:01:00] The next game was in knoxville

[00:01:04] Where he hit another one

[00:01:12] The train left the next morning

[00:01:16] For asheville north carolina

[00:01:20] Going across the mountains

[00:01:24] The tracks twisting and winding

[00:01:27] The babe joined in a card game

[00:01:31] His cheeks and forehead burned

[00:01:35] He really didn't look so good

[00:01:37] His teammates were concerned

[00:01:43] At the asheville station

[00:01:47] When the train came to a stop

[00:01:50] The babe stepped onto the platform

[00:01:55] Then suddenly he just dropped

[00:01:59] They took him to the hotel

[00:02:02] And put him into bed

[00:02:06] A newspaper in London proclaimed

[00:02:09] The mighty babe is dead

[00:02:13] The mighty babe is dead

[00:02:17] The mighty babe is dead

[00:02:20] And before you even knew it

[00:02:23] That's what all the papers said

[00:02:29] The team phoned a physician

[00:02:34] Who could really only guess

[00:02:37] It was his professional opinion

[00:02:40] That the babe just needed rest

[00:02:45] He cautioned against travel

[00:02:48] Anytime too soon

[00:02:52] The babe departed asheville

[00:02:55] On the following afternoon

[00:03:05] Thousands filled penn station

[00:03:09] To try to catch a glimpse

[00:03:12] As they carried him by stretcher

[00:03:16] To the waiting ambulance

[00:03:20] Helen I feel rotten

[00:03:23] The babe said to his wife

[00:03:26] Before they took him to the hospital

[00:03:30] And he went under the knife

[00:03:34] The mighty babe is dead

[00:03:37] The mighty babe is dead

[00:03:41] And before you even knew it

[00:03:44] That's what all the papers said

[00:03:50] The yankees tried to manage

[00:03:54] All the rumors that would spread

[00:03:58] He ate too many hot dogs

[00:04:02] Supposedly they said

[00:04:06] Some thought it was exhaustion

[00:04:09] Some thought it was the flu

[00:04:13] Some thought it could be syphillus

[00:04:16] But no one really knew

[00:04:25] The babe he would recover

[00:04:28] And hit lots more home runs

[00:04:33] More than any other

[00:04:35] By the time his playing days were done

[00:04:41] It's said he loved his women

[00:04:44] And he often stayed out late

[00:04:47] And that he liked the taste of liquor

[00:04:50] And he did not watch his weight

[00:04:54] The mighty babe is dead

[00:04:58] The mighty babe is dead

[00:05:02] And before you even knew it

[00:05:05] That's what all the papers said

[00:05:09] The mighty babe is dead

[00:05:13] The mighty babe is dead

[00:05:17] And before you even knew it

[00:05:20] That's what all the papers said
