This  town ain't big  This town  ain't small  It's a little  of both  they say
 Our ball  club may be minor-league But at least it's triple A
 We sit be-low  the Marlboro  man  Above  the right-field  wall
We  do the wave all by  ourselves "Hey Ump, a blind man coulda made that call!"
 We  like our beer  as flat as can be  We like our dogs with mustard  and re-lish
We've  got a great pitcher, what's  his name Well, we  can't even spell it
We  don't worry about the pennants  much We just like  to see the boys hit it deep
There's  nothing like the view  from the cheap  seats
The  game was close  We call  it a win  Go off  to toast  the boys again
 That local  band is back in town They've got a kind of minor-league sound
 They're not  that bad  They're not  that good  But all in all,  it's under-stood
We  want to dance, they want to play We wouldn't  have it any other way
 Go to chorus, lead, "cheap seats", to third verse
 Now the majors  call  up old what's  his name  And one  more building  rises tall
 And suddenly  we're all grown up And this old town's not quite so small
 But I'll  always miss  the middle-size  towns  In the middle  of the middle West
With  no name pitchers and local bands And mustard  and relish and all the rest
 Go to chorus, "Cheap Seats" "He hits it it's going going going yeah-eah It's
 a home run" "Cheap Seats"
