2 Don’t go Chasing Pickleballs
to the Tune of the Don’t go Chasing Waterfalls: TLC
Don't go chasing pickleballs
Please stick to your court and tell the people:
it’s
coming through…
If it goes astray just stay,
I know you’re missing your ball,
but everybody’s moving so fast ...
3 Here Comes the Rain Again
Same tune, pickleball version
Here comes the rain again
Spoiling all our plans it’s a tragedy,
Falling on the courts slipping up the traction
I want to play where there is
no wind.
I want to smash like the Waters do.
I want to drop into your kitchen.
Once the raining is through So baby, pop to me
I’ll follow through.
Drop to me
I’ll get that too.
lob to me
The best ones do.
4 POWERS! inspired by: Miley Cyrus; Flowers
I walked up
in my shorts, looking good
for the
pickleball courts.
I said: "Hey, can I play?" Just one look and they turned me away.
They said: "All you do is slam it. Go find another group".
So I called my friend Lee: Tell me what should I do?
She said:
"Don’t use all of your power,
loose the grip of your hand,
practice your drills for hours,
so you got skills on demand.
Don’t just go out there banging
you need some kind of plan
but you will play pickleball
better than they can!
Play it better I can play it better babe! "
5 Straight Down the Line (Sung to Sweet Caroline Neil Diamond)
It’s the end of the day
I’d like play one more game now
Really I should be moving on
Im working my shots
My drive you won't see it coming
Ive been pickleballing since the dawn
Fast...it's coming fast. I reach out, and drive the ball right back to youuuuu!
Straight down the line.... ba ba ba! Can't believe it hit so good..... so good so good so good.
It felt so divine........ ba ba ba! to see it land right where it should and now I......
I wait for the serve
I try to be calm not rattled
Bending my knees and playing strong
We get to the net
I brace myself for the battle
Everyone’s watiing for
the ball
Fast...it's coming fast. I reach out, and drive the ball right back to youuuuu!
Straight down the line.... ba ba ba! Can't believe it hit so good..... so good so good so good.
It felt so divine........ ba ba ba! to see it land right where it should and now I......
I look at the court, adjust how I hold my paddle and wait for a ball that looks divine.
I split step my feet, and look a bit over my shoulder patiently waiting for a sign.
Fast...it's coming fast. I reach out, and drive the ball right back to youuuuu!
Straight down the line.... ba ba ba! Can't believe it hit so good..... so good so good so good.
It felt so divine........ ba ba ba! to see it land right where it should and now I......
6 Pickleballin
(sung to Surfin Safari by the Beach Boys)
Let's grab a paddle now
everybody's learning how
come on pickleballin with me
come on pickleballin with me.
Early in the morning
we'll be starting out
everybody's coming along.
We're loading up the rack
get your paddles in
find the court
where you belong.
dink and drop and dive and volley, dink and drop and drive and volley
Come on baby wait and see you're going to love pickleballin with me.
dink and drop and dive and volley, dink and drop and drive and volley
Come on baby wait and see you're going to love pickleballin with me.
Let's grab a paddle now
everybody's learning how
come on pickleballin with me
come on pickleballin with me.
I twisted my ankle it turned into a cankle so I couldn’t go to the pickleball courts
I tell you I'm itchin to get to the kitchen cause working this kitchen it isn’t a chore
I just can’t wait to go and pickleball again
Anyone can be good if they give it their all
Just one play and you'll know why we love the game
cause its more than just pickleball.
Now don’t be downhearted, once our game has started we could be friends but right now we’re at war
So lets get the scores right, and watch for the gunfights Keep playing again till there’s laughter galore
I just can’t wait to go and pickleball again
Anyone can be good if they give it their all
Just one play and you'll know why we love the game
cause its more than just pickleball.
Pickleball’s growing, friends are now flowing ,
you see this game is much more than a sport
With dinking and driving seems the whole world is thriving Its common to hear can we all play one more?
Serve it up Serve it up Serve it up
I just can’t wait to go and pickleball again
Anyone can be good if they give it their all
Just one play and you'll know why we love the game
cause its more than just pickleball.
8 To all the points I've lost before:
(to Willie Nelson All the Girls I've loved before)
To all the points I’ve lost before
I’d love to add you to my score
From volleys I took wrong
to drives that went too long
don t want to see those anymore
To serves that really weren’t my best
To dinks I didn’t quite caress
and drops that hit the tape
or shots I couldn’t make
I’d like to see you never more !
sometime when the winds are blowin
NO matter how hard I might try
I can’t connect the ball to paddle
I flat out miss and it flies by....
To all the balls that hit the net
It‘s you I wish I would forget
I tell you every day
I’d take back every play
where patience wasn’t part of it
9 Lets Go Play Pickleball!
(to the tune of Let's call the whole thing off)
You want to drop it, I like to smash it
You choose to dink it,, I tend to bash it
Drop it, smash it, dink it, bash it
lets go play pickleball!
You take the side line I’ve got the middle
Try not pop up, Just soften a little
One day this whole game wont be such a riddle
let’s go play pickleball!
10 Pickleballer
to the melody of Chiquitita by Abba
Pickleballer tell me what’s wrong
You can play more games tomorrow
If you like
I’ve a new ball you can borrow.
Can’t you see the sun is now gone
And it seems you’ve broken your paddle
I don’t think
you should throw it after battles
Pickleballer what can I say
When the rallies don’t go your way it’s time a for learning
(Everyone they saw you throw it no one wants to see you sad)
You’ll be playing once again and again and again
Whether or not
you are hurting
