LYRICS:
He popped the question, he thought she’d say yes
But she looked him in the eye and she said I guess
But let me think about it, that’s a big one
Goddamn I’m so young
Do I wanna spend the rest of my life
Being your wife?
You’re a nice guy and I think you’re cute
But I’m not a fan of that institution

What would I wear who would I bring
Were you planning on getting me a ring
You so cute, you’re so nice
Can we put this whole thing on ice?

I I I don’t want to say goodbye
I don’t wanna lose you over something stupid - Like I do…

He took it badly, he didn’t feel the same
He shouldn’t have asked her at the big ball game
Up on the big screen, everybody looking
Man that place was cooking
He sat down, his head in his beer,
Wanted to be anywhere but here

He said - I I I should apologize
Something like that should be - done privately
I don’t wanna lose you over something stupid - Like I do!

They called it quits, after that night
Everytime it came up, it turned into a fight

A few years later he finally got
A nice lady to tie the knot
They were happy - he stayed the course
But after a while, he filed for divorce

She found a good one, they felt like a team
Didn’t need a preacher if you know what I mean
They been together, 20 years it’s been
Some people say that they’re living in sin

She said, Hey Hey Hey well that’s ok
I don’t wanna lose you over something stupid - Like I do…

[ThommyofThenn]

If Empty Bottle is Tim's mid-70s rock era, this song is his early 80's moderately successful comeback album

[thubanyeob]

5 bags of popcorn, and throw in a little, one those, like a gold guitar keychain trinket.

[MixMasterMikey]

So many Easter eggs on this album. Play this one backwards and I think you can hear the girl say “yes.” Absolutely brilliant.

[misterpopeofficial.]

Tim's music has reached a "put me in coach" era

[NealBauer]

Proposing to someone at a ballgame is a classless act. The large crowd shifts the balance of power to the person proposing and pressures the proposee into a uncomfortable decision.

This is why I chose to propose to my wife at the Allegheny County Rib Cookoff and Music Festival. The only people in attendance, aside from my wife and I, were the Fabulous Thunderbirds. The only pressure was on me to "Wrap it Up".

(great song, BTW)

[quentinscorsese]

If I actually saw Tim on the jumbotron at a baseball game, it would be way out of left field. Great song, Tim Tim! The 80's called, they want their music back. Of course, they called. They didn't text.

[wd-bsxz]

Love the mix on this one. Nice and fuzzy.

[GuyPerson-jttv]

Say what you want about his comedy, but Tim, in real life, seems like such a down to earth wholesome guy. Such a talent, too.

[LukeMcGuireoides]

Damn, banger alert. You've outdone yourself, Timbo

[sawboss]

Thank you again for sharing your talent.

[nobodyman]

I think this song might be about dropping your hotdog at the old ball game. It usually takes a few listens to figure it out but I think I got it.

[JordanREALLYis]

This is awesome, man. For real. I don't give a shit about celebrities putting out music, but this is actually good. Going in my diamond playlist.

[adammentzer]

Just saw Tim and his band open for Waxahatchee in Philly tonight and was absolutely impressed.

[Username-nmgt]

This song is now stuck in my head non stop.

[kayes]

Not once has Tim’s material brought but a mere smile to my face

[JoeFooshJr]

Great work on this song guys. I really like the guitar especially. Who played on it? Reminds me of 70s and 80s era kinks a bit, which I really enjoy

[HardTimeBluesCafe]

I liked it. Stewart Maesche would have too.

[krapinhat]

good job tim. you did a good job doing this song

[slime]

Oh yes. Real music, baby! Groovy stuff too

[sunniedunbar]

This sounds like a track for an 80s romcom. 90 minutes of plot condensed into one song.
