"No More Standing in the Rain"
The practice, the toil, the sweat and tears
It was all real...for four straight years
The boiling summer heat. Almost too much to take
The winter workouts...up at dark..a better man to make
Growing leaps and bounds, the coaches on the prowl
The meetings...the x's and o's, and the grunts and growls
The cleats. The girdles. The pads and straps
Getting them ready for the next day's laps
The wins. The losses. The frustrations. The OT thrills
The trips. The meals. The midnight bus rides through the hills
Four years of dedication and now no more pain
and no more standing in the rain
Proud of you son
You won
