Way down in Hades in the pit Ai oh, down below At the point where the seven rivers hit Ai oh, down below There’s a lass who hardly feels the flame Ai oh, down below And the Stripes all call her by her name Captain Wilcox Though we can’t get back what the umpires stole We have still got fire from way down in the hole And we will not lose another soul Not under Captain Wilcox When she winds a pitch, let the batter beware Ai oh, down below ‘Cause she’ll throws three strikes like you’re not even there Ai oh, down below With a murder of crows at her beck-ing and call Ai oh, down below But the thing to fear is the one with the ball Captain Wilcox Though we can’t get back what the umpires stole We have still got fire from way down in the hole And we will not lose another soul Not under Captain Wilcox They say she dug out the trench in left field Ai oh, down below Through an iron turf and a layer of steel Ai oh, down below Hades built our hall from a metal unscratched Ai oh, down below But there’s one damn thing he could never have matched Captain Wilcox Though we can’t get back what the umpires stole We have still got fire from way down in the hole And we will not lose another soul Not under Captain Wilcox When she’s all alone, and the games are all done Ai oh, down below And the cheering’s died and the day has been won Ai oh, down below She will know the truths that the dark will impart Ai oh, down below And she feels the weight of the team on her heart Ai oh, down below For a Captain’s lot is a terrible thing Ai oh, down below When you see three deaths for each champion’s ring Ai oh, down below So she’s learned each ump and the ones that they took And their names are in red in a recipe book Signed Captain M, To Wilcox Though we can’t get back what the umpires stole We have still got fire from way down in the hole And we will not lose another soul Not under Captain Wilcox Not under Captain Wilcox RIGHT!
