Ted Wulfers – The Cubs Won It All In 2016 lyrics

THE CUBS WON IT ALL IN 2016
Ted Wulfers

This is a song for my Dad
And all the other Moms and Dads who never got to see it

I wish I could tell them, they finally won
You should have seen Game 7, man it was fun
Tied in the 9th, the rain comin’ down
Extra innings in Cleveland town
Well I’ve got a story that you might not believe
But the Cubs won it all in 2016
Yeah the Cubs won it all in 2016

Well they had the pitching and they had the bats
They ditched the goats, Bartmans and cats
Joe Maddon got’em going, they worked as a team
And the Cubs won it all in 2016
Yeah the Cubs won it all in 2016

Holy cow, they’re world champions now
Wrigleyville’s wrapped in a dance
Harry and Jack and Ernie and Ron
Tinkers, Evers and Chance

I wish there were a way to have another catch
And to thank our folks for teaching us that
And to share with them just one more dog and a beer
And explain to them, we have no more use for the expression:
“Maybe Next Year”
‘Cause although it’s true, it still feels like a dream
That the Cubs won it all in 2016
Yeah, the Cubs won it all in 2016

And I know there’s a cubs fan with a dying request….
Well, Steve, this year, they’re finally the best!!
No more doormats, if you know what I mean
‘Cause the Cubs won it all in 2016
Yeah the Cubs won it all in 2016

So fly the “W” as high as it goes
And those numbers next to “Eamus Catuli” are now zeros
And that night in Cleveland, wow what a scene
When Bryant fielded the ball….
Threw to Rizzo…Holy Cow

And the Cubs won it all in 2016,
Yeah the Cubs won it all in 2016
Yeah the Cubs won it all in 2016

Hey Chicago, whaddya say?
