The Lyrics

This parody is dedicated to the local Athletics fanbase in Oakland, who unfortunately will be losing their beloved team after this season (2024).
Heyyyyyyyyy Johnny

Take your A's and shove em'
I ain't following them no more
You're moving the team out of Oakland
It's what you hoped for
You should've worked things out with the city
But you just flat out ignored
Take your A's and shove em'
I ain't following them no more

I've been following them Oakland A's
Ever since I was a kid
But the fact that they are leaving town
Is nothing but pure bull****
Oakland lost two other teams
And Fisher don't even care
He's turning his back on the loyal A's fans
And that's not even fair

Take your A's and shove em'
I ain't following them no more
You're taking them out of town
After 57 years or more
You were in talks with Oakland
But you simply walked out the door
Take your A's and shove em'
I ain't following them no more

Well that Johnny Fisher's a peice of s***
He's nothing more than a fool
He screwed the A's fans royally
Lord, he thinks he's cool
Soon I'll be a Giants fan
And Oakland fans will make him pay
'Cause when the Giants face the A's next year
We'll have the nerve to say

Take your A's and shove em'
I ain't following them no more
A's fans wanted the team to stay
But all you did was just ignore
You're moving the team right out of Oakland
A sports town no more
Take your A's and shove em'
I ain't following them no more

Take your A's and shove em'
I'm a Giants fan forever more

(harmonica fade out)
(Man screaming: HEY FISHER, THE A'S SUCK!!!)

It was the same way when owner Art Modell moved the Cleveland Browns to what would become the 'Baltimore Ravens'. Now I hate the Ravens but at least Cleveland got a new team again.
