70’s Era Astros Bus Song

I was listening to "Crime in Sports" podcast on Cesar Cedeno and they talked about an old song the 'Stros used to sing on the bus. Here are the lyrics. I say they bring it back and play during the 7th inning stretch.

It Makes a Fellow Proud to be An Astro

Now, the Astros are a team that likes to go out on the town, We like to drink and fight and **** till curfew comes around Then it’s time to make the trek, We better be back to buddy’s check, It makes a fellow proud to be an Astro.

Now, Edwards is our catcher and he’s really No. 1, Dave Bristol said he drinks too much and calls some long home runs, But we think John will be all right, If we keep him in his room at night, It makes a fellow proud to be an Astro.

Now, our pitching staff’s composed of guys who think they’re ‘pretty cool,’ With a case of Scotch, a greenie and an old beat-up whirlpool, We’ll make the other hitters laugh, Then calmly break their bats in half, It makes a fellow proud to be an Astro.

Now, Harry Walker is the one that manages this crew, He doesn’t like it when we drink and fight and smoke and screw, But when we win our game each day, Then what the **** can Harry say? It makes a fellow proud to be an Astro.
