She Likes Basketball

by Hal David

She likes basketball
How about that?
We have something in common
To talk about
Basketball

She likes basketball
How about that?
I have someplace to take her
When we go out
Basketball

Who ever would've dreamed?
Ever would've thought?
That my favorite girl
Likes my favorite sport

Like any other kid
I would make believe
With a ball in my hand
I'd dribble right past
All the others real fast
And I'd be six-foot eight
And my jump shot was really great

She likes basketball
Isn't that wild?
It's an omen that good things
Are on their way
Things to share

We share basketball
Couldn't you die?
From a simple beginning like this
We may get somewhere

It's nice to dream
Someday it might be
