OK,trying to find an older song assoicated with baseball and it's NOT Centerfield. I said that last time and i got 30 answers saying "Centerfield" :) I can't understand the words of the song very well but it sounda like he says "do the walk on by" and then "woo-who" short after that. I might be way off on that but, any other suggestions?

I know what song your talking about! I cant think of who sings it. I know its an older song. Maybe the 80's??? It's going to bug me all day long. I'm sure I'll figure it out. I'll get back with you.

Walk Of Life Lyrics
» Dire Straits
Here comes Johnny singing oldies, goldies
Be-Bop-A-Lula, Baby What I say
Here comes Johnny singing I Gotta Woman
Down in the tunnels, trying to make it pay
He got the action, he got the motion
Yeah the boy can play
Dedication devotion
Turning all the night time into day
He do the song about the sweet lovin' woman
He do the song about the knife
He do the walk, he do the walk of life
Here comes Johnny and he'll tell you the story
Hand me down my walkin' shoes
Here come Johnny with the power and the glory
Backbeat the talkin' blues
He got the action, he got the motion
Yeah the boy can play
Dedication devotion
Turning all the night time into day
He do the song about the sweet lovin' woman
He do the song about the knife
He do the walk, he do the walk of life
Here comes Johnny singing oldies, goldies
Be-Bop-A-Lula, Baby What I say
Here comes Johnny singing I Gotta Woman
Down in the tunnels, trying to make it pay
He got the action, he got the motion
Yeah the boy can play
Dedication devotion
Turning all the night time into day
And after all the violence and double talk
There's just a song in all the trouble and the strife
You do the walk, you do the walk of life

Here comes Johnny singing oldies, goldies

He do the song about the knife
He do the walk, he do the walk of life

He do the song about the knife
He do the walk, he do the walk of life

Turning all the night time into the day
And after all the violence and double talk
There's just a song in the trouble and the strife
You do the walk, you do the walk of life

Walk Of Life by Dire Straits
Silly American sports bloopers vid: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vZxVC0GB838
That Red Sox pitcher at 1:17 -- who is it? This video was made in the mid-80s (album, Money For Nothing, came out in 1985), so possibly it's Clemens when he was a youngster... anyone know?

That is "Walk of Life" by Dire Straits.
The video had baseball bloopers and funny clips of baseball games.

It might be "Sultans of Swing" by Dire Straits or "Walk of Life" by the same group. I can't remember.
