Take Me Out to the Ball Game (song)

Take Me Out to the Ball Game is a traditional baseball song that is sung during the seventh-inning stretch (midway through the seventh inning) of a baseball game. The writers of the song before writing had never visited a match. ==History[ Edit] == The song was written by Jack Norworth, while he sat in the metro. During his ride he saw advertising of baseball at the Polo Grounds, whereby he became inspired. The music, which belonging, was written by Albert Von Tilzer. The song was originally sung by the then-wife of Norworth, Nora Bayes. Norworth wrote In 1927, another version of the song. ==Lyrics[ Edit] == The entire number is rarely or never Sung. Usually it is the chorus done two times in a row. ==Stories[ Edit] == For the song everyone is asked to stand. This is done so for decades. The story goes that, in the early years of the song, the president was present during a match. During the seventh-inning stretch, he went to his legs to straighten, after which everyone in the stadium found that they needed to do. During this stretch, by pure coincidence, the song was played and is never gone.
