The Mountain Goats — Doc Gooden

[Verse 1] Wheels down in Seattle Three years ago, in this town They sent their best and brightest to me I sent them all back down [Verse 2] Deluxe coach to the ballpark There's champagne on the snack trays Summon up the spirit of a brighter time Looked bad last week against the Blue Jays [Chorus] When my name was everywhere None of you were there When my name was everywhere [Verse 3] Potholes in the parking lot You feel the jolts a little harder every year The batboy hands out yellow slickers It never stops raining out here [Chorus] When my name was everywhere None of you were there When my name was everywhere [Bridge] When the speedball would squeal With the highlight reel When the headline hype Was on the front page in extra-large type It was me, for all the world to see [Verse 4] Don’t call it a comeback I've been here for years Maximum respect to all the warriors Who choose to fall down on their spears [Chorus] When my name was everywhere None of you were there When my name was everywhere
