THE GINGER KID AND THE BLACK SOX

 

Buck or George Daniel Weaver

Born in the state of Pennsylvania

Eighteen ninety the town of Stowe

And died aged sixty-six in Chicago

He loved baseball as much as life

All most as much as Helen his wife

He spent his entire career as a pro

Playing with the sox in Chicago

As one of the eight men caught

But the only one not to be bought

Punished with ringleader Gandil

Innocent in the black sox scandal

The only player to be free of blame

The rest of his life lived in shame

A great third basemen of his time

Banned for life for others crime

He gave his life to clear his name

He should be in the hall of fame
