Night Game

Havia dois homens caídosThere were two men down
E o placar estava empatadoAnd the score was tied
No final do oitavoIn the bottom of the eighth
Quando o arremessador morreuWhen the pitcher died

E eles colocaram suas pontasAnd they laid his spikes
No monte do arremessadorOn the pitcher's mound
E seu uniforme estava rasgadoAnd his uni-form was torn
E o número dele foi deixado no chãoAnd his number was left on the ground

Então a noite esfriouThen the night turned cold
Mais frio que a luaColder than the moon
As estrelas eram brancas como ossosThe stars were white as bones
O estádio era velhoThe stadium was old
Mais velho que os gritosOlder than the screams
Mais velho que as equipesOlder than the teams
Havia três homens caídosThere were three men down
E a temporada perdidaAnd the season lost
E a lona foi enroladaAnd the tarpaulin was rolled
Após a geada do invernoUpon the winter frost
