Every Time I Look At My Pocketbook,

I Was A Baseball Player, I Taught Baseball, And All Of A Sudden I Was In The Business World. Now I Used The Baseball World To Talk About Their Product. Not Too Much, Just Enough To Keep Going. Just Be Yourself And You'll Never Have A Problem. That's What I Did.

At Ten I Was Playing Against 18-year-old Guys. At 15 I Was Playing Professional Ball With The Birmingham Black Barons, So I Really Came Very Quickly In All Sports.

I Remember The Last Season I Played. I Went Home After A Ballgame One Day, Lay Down On My Bed, And Tears Came To My Eyes. How Can You Explain That? It's Like Crying For Your Mother After She's Gone. You Cry Because You Love Her. I Cried, I Guess, Because I Loved Baseball, And I Knew I Had To Leave It.

When I'm Not Hitting, I Don't Hit Nobody. But, When I'm Hitting, I Hit Anybody.

"and My Father Didn't Have Money For Me To Go To College. And At That Particular Time They Didn't Have Black Quarterbacks, And I Don't Think I Could Have Made It In Basketball, Because I Was Only 5′ 11". So I Just Picked Baseball."
