Take Me Out To The Ball Game (1948)
It’s strictly USA (reprise)Lyrics and music by
Betty Comden, Adolph Green and Roger Edens
Like a Philadelphia scrapple
Like a Washington exposé
Like the Saint Louise blues
Or the Dallas News
It’s strictly USA.
Like a Saturday night on Main Street
Like a Ford or a Chevrolet
Like potato chips
Or comic strips
It’s strictly USA.

Take Judy Garland
Take Kathryne Grayson
Take Mr. Crosby
Or Fred Astaire
Don’t let the movies thin ’em up
Cause they look so pretty when we pin ’em up.
Like the annual Elks convention
Like a Rotary Club soiree
Like masonic halls or firemen’s balls
Like honeymooning at Niagara Falls
They’re really here to stay
Cause it’s strictly USA.
