Info:
Take Me Out to the Ball Game is a 1908 Tin Pan Alley song by Jack Norworth and Albert Von Tilzer which has become the unofficial anthem of North American baseball, although neither of its authors had attended a game prior to writing the song.
The chorus of the song is traditionally sung during the middle of the seventh inning of a baseball game. |
