Did I say what they said I said Some I said, not all If I said the things I'd said I'd have no time to play ball I said some things I think I said Some things came right from me Some things I said, I wished I said But those things, let them be I said some things I said I saw Some say I didn't say Some things I saw, I didn't see I just looked the other way Some things I said I didn't say I know, because it's true I said some things I said I saw The choice is up to you There's things I said, that people like Those things, I know I spoke The other things I didn't say Were just written as a joke If I said the things I said And you like them, say them too But the things they said, I didn't say Some are old, but most are new I know I didn't say as much As people said I said There's more from me, I didn't say At least that's what I've read So, sue me if I say I say Some things I said, but heard I know it wasn't me that said I don't know all those words So, if I said the things I said Instead of going out to play I ask you now, to tell me please Exactly, What'd I say

What'd I Say? (A Yogi Berra Tribute)
Did I say what they said I said Some I said, not all If I said the things I'd said I'd have no time to play ball I said some things I think I said Some things came right from me Some things I said, I wished I said But those things, let them be I said some things I said I saw Some say I didn't say Some things I saw, I didn't see I just looked the other way Some things I said I didn't say I know, because it's true I said some things I said I saw The choice is up to you There's things I said, that people like Those things, I know I spoke The other things I didn't say Were just written as a joke If I said the things I said And you like them, say them too But the things they said, I didn't say Some are old, but most are new I know I didn't say as much As people said I said There's more from me, I didn't say At least that's what I've read So, sue me if I say I say Some things I said, but heard I know it wasn't me that said I don't know all those words So, if I said the things I said Instead of going out to play I ask you now, to tell me please Exactly, What'd I say
