Macklemore - My Oh My Lyrics
I used to sit with my dad in the garage
That sawdust, that Pinesol, and the moss
Around every spring, when the winter thawed
We'd huddle around the radio, twist the broken knob
710 AM, no KJR. Dave Niehaus' voice would echo throughout the yard
But to me and my friends
The voice on the other end might as well have been God's
1995, the Division Series
Edgar's up to bat
Bottom of the 11th inning
Got the whole town listening
"Swung on and belted," the words distorted. "Joey Cora rounds third!
Here comes Griffey! The throw to the plate's not in time!
My, oh my, the Mariners win it!"
Yes. Fireworks, they lit up that ceiling in the King dome
[Dave Niehaus announcing:]
"And swung on and lined down the left field line for a base hit!
Here comes Joey! Here comes Junior to third base!
They're gonna wave him in! The throw to the plate will be…
Late! The Mariners are going to play for the American League Championship!
I don't believe it! It just continues! My, oh my!"
Laces woven, barely holdin' that stitch
The creases of time amongst the grime and the grit
Where the leather he used to pound his fists
To some it's just a mitt, but see that glove was him
Yep, tell me stories on the field, with that sun-stained brim
Blood under my chin, he taught me how to spit
Sunflower seeds back with me and my crew
Sunburnt arms
Big League Chew
Yeah we were like, The Sandlot after dinner
After practice we'd listen
To the M's in the kitchen
And if mom wasn't trippin'
"Come on dad! Please, I swear, just one more inning!"
Voice went "pump, pump!" through the system
"Break out the rye bread! It's grand salami time!"
"My, oh my! Another victory!" Yes. My city, my city
Childhood, my life watchin' Griffey right under those lights
Under that light rain, gleaming in that night game, can't stop now
Keep moving, no brake pads!
Came here to prove a point, live my life on the field
Make history in between the base paths
And compete against the fear that is in me that's my only barrier and I swear that I'mma break that!
From the mud
The cleats that we drug
Through the feet
This is that moment, and you can't take it back
I don't really collect cards anymore, just a box and some old cardboard
Memories embedded in the dust, in the fibres that age just like us
Livin' somewhere off in the drawer
This is what you make of it. Yeah, we play to win
Live it like we're under the lights of the stadium
Fight until the day that God decides to wave us in
Right, until he waves us in
It's my city, my city, childhood, my life. That's right
Under those lights
My city, my city, childhood, that's right. Niehaus, "My, oh my!"
Come on. My city, my city, childhood, my life. That's right, under those lights
It's my city, my city, childhood, my life, Niehaus. My, oh my. Rest in peace

That sawdust that pine sol and the moss
Around every spring when the winter thaw
We'd huddle around the radio twist the broken knob

Couldn't have been older than 10

The voice on the other end might as well have been God's

Edgars up to bat
Bottom of the 11th inning got the whole town listening,
Swung on and belted the words that started, Joey Cora rounds third
Here comes Griffey the throw to the plate's not in time
My oh my the Mariners win it
Yes, fire works they lit up ceiling in the king dome
We had just made history.
And swung, Lined down the left field line for a base hit!
Here comes Joey! Here comes Junior to third base!
They're gonna wave him in! the throw to the plate will be'.

Opener on Estate, only the og’s know
Now I wish you were from the Bay Area lol
Right in front of the ferry in the picture there is a Red Robin
Go Mariners!!!!⚾️⚾️⚾️
Sadly 1995 was our world series. I still have a piece of the Kingdome btw, my grandpa worked at the Kingdome and he gave me a piece.
😎😎
I have been listening to this song since like 2017.
I’m crying listening to this song it’s 2019 now life was more simpler back then great memories that I cherish
This song is so slept on
MACK! J-Role-Phila,Philles was way better then Griffy 🤪
I wanna have a drink with you Bro.
South Philly Broad Street 2009
You referenced South Philly.
Good shit
Mac using music made me feel pride for a team I don't support from a country I don't live in from a sport Ive never watched once in my life. Wow Music is so special to me it scares me that I might be deaf someday. I hope I can remember how it sounds and I hope when I think of it I still get the same emotions when I hear it.
Joey Cora never had to round third. He was at third base as he had just went first to third on Griffey's single, which was followed by Edgar's game winning double.
I wasn’t alive when that ‘95 ALDS happened, but man, what a moment. I’m no Mariner’s fan, but I would’ve jumped and cheered and gone crazy seeing that.
What a song Macklemore.
Nine Years Ago Today...damn; still terribly missed here in Seattle and the PNW...
He should make a song about how the Mariners wasted Ichiro's career. Or a song about Ichiro in general.
RIP Chazz Rocco Patrella🙏🏾🙌🏾❣️💙
Astros are gonna win our second World Series tonight!!!
this song stucks in the history
Had to come here after Bleacher Report didn't use the Niehaus call of the 1995 Mariners double for their Rewind episode
Nostalgia central right here. I watched this game with my Dad. I grew up in Maryland so you know I was rooting for Seattle in this series. Thanks Mack!
Best music video with a story of all time
Underrated song
Man love this guy, the feeling he brings to his music is beautiful ❤️
If your listening to this in 2019 your a real one :D have a nice life guys
qq飞车而来
This song still gives me goosebumps. It's my childhood.
Listening to this and thinking about Marty Brenneman today. And this one belongs to the Reds
It is filled with hope i like this song.
✌✝️🚹R
R.I.P Dave niehaus.love you M'S
this song made me a baseball and a mariners fan, thank you mack, from Spain 🇪🇸
macklemore was soooo good before he released thrift shop... fuck.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ah a art piece about American history
Everything he says in this video is so exactly right! I grew up in Seattle in the 90s in a Mariners family, Dave Niehaus narrating the soundtrack playing in the background of my childhood. I was at so many of those big games, especially in the ‘95 playoffs. I don’t live in Seattle anymore because I just got to a point where I missed Seattle from the 90s too much, and it’s just so different now, but I love this video — the sites of my beautiful hometown and some of the best memories from my childhood. Thanks Macklemore.
I love how Macklemore always sings what he means. I love how he doesn't get hate from doing what he loves. He is so lucky because of that. I am a girl and I get hate from being a Quarterback, a rapper, and a Trumpet player. So if anyone, anyone at all reads this, please, I am begging you, don't listen to those fools who tell you what you can and can't do. They are just wishing that they can do what you do. I wish my younger self knew that. I had to teach myself that once middle school started 3 years ago because there were some people at my school who didn't agree with me being a girl rapper, QB, and Trumpet player.
Cool story
whats life without these amzing songs comment back
God I miss Washington.
Seattle stole my heart
This song will always remind me of my childhood
born in raised in washington. baseball fan since i was 8 and moved to the seattle area. i’m 14 now and i love the mariners, and i play softball considering i cant play baseball. this is the first time i’ve heard this song, my sister went to the edgar martinez hall of fame game yesterday and showed us. this makes me proud to grow up in washington. :)
I can’t believe they made a song about the Mariners winning😂
Fives21 stfu
Sorry but this is kinda bad
legendary
My childhood
Te quiero mackly
Born and raised in Seattle so i’m getting the feels
i love this song i’m from seattle
2019 🤔🤔🤔🤔
Goosebumbs
Edddddgggggaaaarrrrrr!!!! HOF baby!
Still here in 2019
0:40 Here come the goosebumps
Oh God the nostalgia
8 years, 25,247,183 views, 12,464 comments. and still a great song
This song makes me so happy and proud to be from seattle❤️✌️ I’m a couple years late. But it’s okay
My go to summertime song!
i like this song
They Should Play This Song Before And After each Seattle Mariners Home Game #MyOhMy
Great song ,I'm a single mother was out teaching my son how to play ball he loved it and remembers . Every city has fans like this. Great dong
I’m from the 509 but I’m still gonna say it
222220000066666 AYEEEeE
I remember that game!! ⚾ ⚾ ⚾ I love Seattle and my M"s
Not a Mariners fan or a rap music fan, but I love baseball. This is gold. "Till the day that God decides to wave us in"
Man...
Makes me proud to be from Seattle. :')
Thumbs down? Really? Y'all must not understand the history nor have ever heard Dave Niehaus call a Mariner game then. He was legend!!
Ryan Lewis really understands how to capture emotions with his songs love his work!
God I miss that state
GOOD VID
Song is pretty good,but Mariners suck ass and always will.
He looks like Vin Diesel e_e
I grew up an Atlanta fan but this song seems to characterize my upbringing with the Braves. Listening to the the radio with Sid breams coming to the plate. My oh my!
i used to listen to this before every baseball game. WHERE DID THE TIME GO
Those who live outside the PNW have no idea how exciting that '95 run was, so many come-from-behinds late in the season. Game 5 in its' entirety is on YouTube, pull it up and check out this thrilling game and that amazing M's roster. After all these years I still get the chills when I see Edgar's franchise-saving double. Macklemore does the legendary Dave Niehaus right, this song should be the city's theme song.
How have I never heard this
You should totally do a song with NF, he’s just a real as you!!! Y’all would make a great song together!!
Thank you
2019 anyone?
Im from seattle and I play on the field right next to where he recorded this video and this whole video just brings me so many chills.
The best part is where the commetator says the name of the song "1:25"
One day mac we will win go M's true to the blue
His songs my be old, but THERE STILL AMAZING
I've been waiting for the m's to make the playoffs in my lifetime. While I'm waiting, I'll feel nostalgic to this song
Amazing. Hawks, Mariner fan since birth. Just like my son
Anyone watching on Opening Day 2019?
Im proud to live in Seattle.💙 and Im pumped to see Macklemore today at the baseball game!.🤪😅🤗
Best baseball song ever made
This hits so many memories for me of my childhood.

Whenever I watch this video or hear this song someone starts cutting onios right next to me...
I’m from Washington :)
I am a Yankees fan and I still get the chills listening to this. Even though we lost it was a great game.
Thx Mac
Don’t lose your life learning things others say, imagine! School traps us, making us think inside the box. I learned maths all my life, thought it would have helped me some day, but I don’t like it at all. So go out there and do what you want 👍🏿. I missed my chance. Don’t miss your chance.
2019 anyone!?
I was born in Seattle, and I remember having to move at the age of 4 or 5 and I remember throwing a tantrum to my parents because I didn't want to move, I'm 17 now and my plan is to move back to Seattle when I'm ready and able, This song is like, my anthem. Thank you Macklemore 🙌
