Little boy, in a baseball hat,
Stands in a field, with his ball and bat,
says "I am the greatest, player of them all"
puts his bat on his shoulder, and tosses up his ball.

And the ball goes up, and the ball comes down,
he swings his bat all the way around,
and the worlds so still you can hear the sound
as the baseball falls, to the ground.

Now the little boy, doesn't say a word,
picks up his ball, he is undeterred,
Says "I am the greatest, there has ever been,"
and he grits his teeth, and tries it again.

And the ball goes up, and the ball comes down,
he swings his bat all the way around,
and the worlds so still you can hear the sound
as the baseball falls, to the ground.

He makes no excuses, He shows no fear,
He just closes his eyes, and listens to the cheers.

Little boy, he adjusts his hat
picks up his ball, stares at his bat,
says "I am the greatest, the game is on the line,"
and he gives his all, one last time.

And the ball goes up, like the moon so bright,
Swings his bat, with all his might,
and the worlds as still, as still as can be,
and the baseball falls, and that's strike three.

Now its supper time, and his Mama calls,
little boy starts home, with his bat and ball,
says "I am the greatest, that is a fact,
but even I didn't know, I could pitch like that."

Says, "I am the greatest, that is understood,
but even I didn't know, I could pitch that good."

小男孩，戴著他的球帽
站在球場上，球和球棒陪著他
他說：“我是所有球員中，最偉大的那位”
球棒擱在肩膀上，往上拋球

然後，球飛上，球掉下
他全力以赴轉身揮動他的球棒
當球跌倒地面
世界靜止得可以聽到聲音

男孩當下沒說一個字
拿起他的球，他的決心猶如偏向虎山行
說：“我是有史以來最偉大的”
他咬了咬牙，再次嘗試


然後，球飛上，球掉下
他全力以赴轉身揮動他的球棒
當球跌倒地面
世界靜止得可以聽到聲音

他沒有任何借口，他表示沒有恐懼，
他只是閉上雙眼，聽著歡呼聲。

小男孩，他調整他的帽子
拿起他的球，盯著他的球棒，
說：“我是最偉大的，球賽正在打著。”
他使出他的一切，最後一次。

棒球飛向天，像月亮那麽明亮，
使足所有的力量，他擺動球棒，
世界靜止了，就那麼靜止了，
棒球掉下，那可是三擊好球。

晚飯時間了，媽媽叫喚他，
小男孩開始走回家，帶著他的球棒和球，
說：“我是最棒的，毋庸置疑，
即使我不知道，我也可以表現得這麼好。”

說，“我是最大的，毋庸置疑，
即使我不知道，我也可以表現得這麽好。”
