Lyrics:

(Steve Seskin/Mark Alan Springer)
 
 The umpire had got sick so he said he'd give it a try
 So there was my dad,callin' them balls and strikes
 I can still hear the crack of the bat
 I never got a hold of one like that
 I was roundin' second when the third base coach
 Took a big chance and wave me home
 I'm pretty sure the ball touched me before I touched the plate
 But when it's your dad,that's a hard call to make
 
 For the most part,I think I made him proud
 But there was one night,I know I let him down
 I had known them boys all my life
 I should've known better then to take that ride
 The county sherriff was a friend of his
 Said that's why he was bringin' me in
 He handed me the phone,said "Sorry son,everybody makes mistakes"
 But when it's your dad,that's a hard call to make
 
 It's not easy as wrong or right
 It ain't always black and white
 Life's a thousand shades of grey
 
 He had a plan for just about everything
 An' he'd it known that if this day ever came
 That he had lived a good long life
 And he had always fought a good fight
 So when the doctor said,"It's up to you"
 I knew what I had to do
 I read the form picked up a pen and my hand began to shake
 'Cause when it's your dad,that's a hard call to make
 
 It's not as easy as wrong or right
 It ain't always black and white
 Life's a thousand shades of grey
