The Philadelphia Fillies

Del Reeves

Lyrics

Well, I'm sitting here a thinking about those Philadelphia Fillies

And some may think I'm talking 'bout baseball

But I'm talking about the ones that wear them dresses oh so pretty

And the way they swing should be against the law

There's a lot of dangerous curves in that beautiful city

Oh, but you'll never see no warning signs

And if you wanna get right down to the nitty-gritty

Oh, you can bat a thousand every time

I met a Yankee in New York, and I love an angel out in L.A.

But those Philadelphia Fillies tore my mind apart

And this giant's leaving Frisco today

There's some nice looking twins up in Minnesota

And Atlanta's got a brave girl or two

And I cuddled a cubby in old Chicago

But Philadelphia I'm a coming back to you

I met a Yankee in New York, and I love an angel out in L.A.

But those Philadelphia Fillies tore my mind apart

And this giant's leaving Frisco today

I'm sitting here a thinking about those Philadelphia Fillies

And some may think I'm talking 'bout baseball

I'm talking about the ones that wear them hot pants oh so pretty

And the way they swing should be against the law

There's some nice looking twins up in Minnesota

And Atlanta's got a brave girl or two

And there's some nice looking legs in Cincinnati

But Philadelphia I'm a coming back to you
