Intro
Verse 1
When he was a kid, he'd be up at 5, take shots to 8, make the thing drive
Out after school, back on ice, that was his life, he was gonna play in the Big League
Ahhhhh-Ohhh, the Big League
Verse 2
Not many ways out of this cold northern town, you work in the mill and get laid in the ground
If your gonna jump it will be with the game, real fast & tough is the only clear lane to the Big League
Ahhhhh-Ohhhhh
Chorus
My boy's gonna play in the big league, my boy's gonna turn some heads,
My boy's gonna play in the big league, my boy's gonna knock 'em dead
Ahhhhh-Ohhh, the Big League
Verse 2
All the right moves when he turned 18, scholarship and school on a big US team
Out with his girl near Lake McLean, hit a truck doing 70 in the wrong lane to the Big League
Ahhhhh-Ohhhhh
Chorus
My boy's gonna play in the big league, my boy's gonna turn some heads,
My boy's gonna play in the big league, my boy's gonna knock 'em dead
Ahhhhh-Ohhh
Bridge
You Never can tell what might come down, you never can tell when you might check out
Just don't know, no, you never can tell
Guitar break
Verse 3
Sometimes at night you can hear the ice crack, it sounds like thunder and rips thru my back
Sometimes in the morning I still hear the sound, ice meets metal, Can't you drive me down to the Big League
Ahhhhh-Ohhh
Chorus
My boy's gonna play in the big league, my boy's gonna turn some heads,
My boy's gonna play in the big league, my boy's gonna knock 'em dead
Ahhhhh-Ohhh
Verse 4
You never can tell what might come down, you never can tell when you might check out
Just don't know, no, you never can tell, so do right to others like you do to yourself in the Big League
Ahhhhh-Ohhh, the Big League
Ahhhhh-Ohhh, the Big League
Outro
