                          FORBES FIELD: l960

                                  It was the year
                                  I left for California
                                 That I lost interest
                                 In Baseball.

                                  I was in love
                                  With Jack Spencer,
                                  And we saw the
                                  Pirates play
                                  A double header
                                  At Forbes Field.

                                  Homeruns!
                         
                                  I wasn't
                                  In love with
                                  Baseball.
                                  The romance was
                                  Jack.

                                  It couldn't have been
                                  Love at sixteen,
                                  The year the Pirates
                                  Won the Series.

                                  I moved West that fall.
                                  Never saw Jack again.
                                  Never went to another
                                  Baseball game.
