There's a guy who played second base
and hit balls all around the place.
Fans of Yankees pass the time away
and talk about those times.

And there's a team, plays across the town
and they're staffed by a bunch of clowns.
Liked the way he coached, they said come around.
But treated him a crime.

And first they said
"Randolph, you're a fine guy.
What a good skip you would be.
Lead the Mets, and we'll win a title, you and me."

Randolph, he had David Wright
and Carlos Beltran to play for him each name.
He also had Jose Reyes' game
and plenty of pitching, too.

They came, in oh-six, so close.
In oh-seven, a big-time lead they blows.
And they made it clear, Met fans, they knows
not much, and they tell him true:

The Met fans say,
"Randolph, you're a dumb guy!
What a manager, lousy!
Well, you're stuck with the kind thinking that's Yankee!"

Yeah, Randolph used to hear these guys
who just can't get straight their stories!
He could feel their anger high-rise
because he was once Torre's.
But they will not listen to the truth
and he was an honest man.
And Randolph does his best to understand!

Tonight, when the bars close down
Randolph knows he's still loved in this town
by Yankee Fans, he should come around.
We'll cheer him on Old-Timers' Day.

The fans will say,
"Randolph, you're a fine guy!
What a good time, you gave me!
But none better than when you proved Met fans
couldn't see!"

"Yeah, Randolph, you're a fine guy!
What a good time, you gave me!
But none better than when you proved Met fans
couldn't see!"
