Milligan's Isle
Just sit right back and you'll hear a tale
a tale of a fateful team
Whose starters all were in the red
in my latest Open League.
Addie Joss was a mighty cookie, man
Ed Summers, brave and sure
But the dead-ballers were dead tired that day
and so was Wilcy Moore,
so was Wilcy Moore.
The schedule started getting rough
the tired staff was tossed
If not for the courage of the fearless mops
the season would be lost,
the season would be lost.
The fatigue rebounded on the shores of this
well-charted managing style:
With Milligan,
Archie Stimmel, too,
Jay Pettibone and Cantwell, Mike,
The Dupee Shaw,
Bud Messenger and Mike Maroth,
here on Milligan's Isle.
