  - Verse:
  - Nelly Kelly loved Base Ball
  games,
  - Knew the players,  knew
  all their names,
  - You could see her there
  ev'ry day,
  - Shout "Hurray"
  when they'd play.
  - Her boy friend by the name
  of Joe,
  - Said to Coney Isle, dear,
  let's go,
  - Then Nelly started to fret
  and pout,
  - And to him I heard her shout.
  -  
  - Chorus:
  - Take Me Out To The Ball
  Game,
  - Take me out to the crowd.
  - Buy me some peanuts and
  cracker jacks,
  - I don't care if I ever get
  back,
  - So it's root, root, root
  for the home team,
  - If they don't win it's a
  shame.
  - For it's one, two, three
  strikes your out,
  - At the old Ball game.
