Famous quotes by Lou Gehrig:

"The agriculture lobby is very strong in the state of Wyoming. So I don't know if we're going to be successful or not, but we're going to give her a go."

"I'm not a headline guy. I know that as long as I was following Ruth to the plate I could have stood on my head and no one would have known the difference."

"What are you going to do? Admit to yourself that the pitchers have you on the point of surrender? You can't do that. You must make yourself think that the pitchers are just as good as they always have been or just as bad."

"In the beginning I used to make one terrible play a game. Then I got so I'd make one a week and finally I'd pull a bad one about once a month. Now, I'm trying to keep it down to one a season."

"The ballplayer who loses his head, who can't keep his cool, is worse than no ballplayer at all."

"There is no room in baseball for discrimination. It is our national pastime and a game for all."

Le Jerk - Alan Jay Lerner

Top Alan Jay Lerner, Le Jerk

(Thierry Hazard)
Toute la journÃ©e au tÃ©lÃ©phone ou Ã taper Ã la machine
Les yeux rivÃ©s sur sa Kelton, JosÃ©phine attend qu'ca s'termine.
Elle se dit qu'avec son tour de poitrine, oh, du genre Dolly Parton
Elle pourrait poser dans les magazines comme Olivia Newton-John.
Quand JosÃ©phine sort du bureau
Elle passe aussitot chez sa cousine Berthe
Ensemble elles courent au club-Ã -gogo
Pour aller danser le jerk sur de la musique pop
Sous les Ã©clairs des stroboscopes, elles dansent le jerk !
Roger travaille dans une usine qui sent bon l'oxyde de carbone.
Tous les midi, Ã la cantine, il mange du poulet aux hormones.
Roger admire beaucoup LÃ©nine. Roger admire beaucoup Lennon
Et dans la fanfare de l'usine, le dimanche, il joue du trombone.
Et quand Roger sort du bureau
Il prend le bus de dix-huit heures dix-sept
Et file tout droit au club-Ã -gogo
Pour aller danser le jerk sur de la musique pop
Sous les Ã©clairs des stroboscopes, il danse le jerk !
(Saxophone solo)
Un soir Roger rencontra JosÃ©phine. Il lui dit "C'que vous etes mignonne."
"Vous etes belle comme une speakerine."
"Venez chez moi ! J'vous jouerai du trombone."
Et par un beau matin d'hiver, JosÃ©phine et Roger se mariÃ¨rent.
Ils eurent des quadruplÃ©s qu'ils prÃ©nommÃ¨rent
Gustave, Alphonse, Saturnin, Philibert.
Ils leur apprirent le... Ils leur apprirent le... Ils leur apprirent le...
Jerk ! Sur de la musique pop
Et tous ensemble, quand vient le soir
Ils prennent le bus de dix-huit heures dix-sept
Pour aller danser le jerk sur de la musique pop
Toute la nuit, comme Ã Woodstock, ils dansent le jerk !
