Meet The Mets(with lyrics)! A Tribute to the '69 Mets (HD)

This is a tribute to the 1969 New York Mets! They are the Amazin's!

Meet the Mets, written by Ruth Roberts and Bill Katz.

Lyrics:
Meet the Mets, meet the Mets,
Step right up and greet the Mets.
Bring your kiddies, bring your wife,
Guaranteed to have the time of your life.
Because the Mets are really sockin' the ball,
Knockin' those home runs over the wall.
East side, West side, everybody's coming down,
To meet the M-E-T-S Mets, of New York town.

Oh, the butcher and the baker and the people on the streets,
Where did they go? To MEET THE METS!
Oh, they're hollerin' and cheerin' and they're jumpin' in their seats,
Where did they go? To MEET THE METS!
All the fans are true to the orange and blue,
So hurry up and come on down -
'cause we've got ourselves a ball club,
The Mets of New York town!

Give 'em a yell! Give 'em a hand!
And let 'em know you're rootin' in the stands!
Come on and...

Meet the Mets, meet the Mets,
Step right up and greet the Mets.
Bring your kiddies, bring your wife,
Guaranteed to have the time of your life.
Because the Mets are really sockin' the ball,
Knockin' those home runs over the wall.
East side, West side, everybody's coming down,
To meet the M-E-T-S Mets,
Of New York town,
Of New York town!

The New York Mets' 1969 season was the 8th regular season for the Mets who played their home games at Shea Stadium. Managed by Gil Hodges, the team went 100-62 and finished 1st in the new Eastern Division of the National League, becoming the first-ever divisional champions. From there, they defeated the Atlanta Braves, three games to zero in the inaugural National League Championship Series for the first-ever National League pennant, followed by their first-ever World Series Championship as they defeated the American League Champion Baltimore Orioles in five games.

Great video...I go back to 1963 with my first game at the Polo Grounds as a six year old and guess what? We suck. Go Kenny Bos!!!!!!!!

Many people don't know that the Mets colors of blue, orange and white are for the the Brooklyn Dodgers and New York Giants who stabbed their fans in the back and moved to the west coast in the late 50s...

Don't despair, Mets fans -- though it's a dark gloomy day today, someday the glory days will return. Everyone, enjoy the stroll down memory lane (if you are old enough).  If not, just sing along to MEET THE METS!

My dad loved the Mets because of how incompetent they were for the first few years. His favorite player was "Marvelous" Marv Throneberry
