HOWLIN’ HILDA

CHORUS

THERE’S TEN MILLION DODGER FANS FROM BROOKLYN TO L.A.

DODGER FANS ARE EVERYWHERE IN THE WORLD TODAY

DODGERS FANS ARE BEST JUST ASK THEM THEY’LL AGREE

BUT HOWLIN’ HIDA’S THE BEST DODGER FAN IN HISTORY

HER NAME COMES EASILY TO DODGER TONGUES

HOWLING HILDA THE LADY WITH LEATHER LUNGS

THIS PEANUT SACKER WORKED MANY A DODGER GAME

RANG HER TWIN COWBELLS INTO THE FAN HALL OF FAME

FROM THE 1920’S TO THE END OF THEIR BROOKLYN STAY

HOWLIN’ HILDA HELD THE DODGERS IN HER SWAY

EACHA HEART OUT YAH BUM WAS HER FAVORITE LINE

HOWLIN HILDA THE BROOKLYN DODGER’S VALENTINE

O’MALLEY HE SENT FLOWERS LEO GAVE A LIFETIME PASS

HOWLIN HILDA WAS FLATBUSH’S VERSION OF CLASS

THEY TOOK HER ON SHORT TRIPS WITH THE DODGER TEAM

EVERY DODGER LOVED HER FISH PEDDLER SCREAM

REPEAT CHORUS

HILDA IS HERE HER SIGN PROCLAIMED TO THE CROWD

HOWLING HILDA DIDN’T NEED A SIGN SHE WAS SO LOUD

EACH VISITING TEAM WAS HIT WITH HER VERBAL FLACK

UNTIL ONE DAY SHE SUFFERED A HEART ATTACK

THE DODGERS THEN GAVE HER TWIN COWBELLS TO RING

HILDA RALLIED OUR DODGERS, GAVE OTHER TEAMS THE ZING

LEO PULLED THE PITCHER THE OWNER PASSED A NOTE.

IT’S WASN’T FROM THE OWNER! BUT A NOTE HILDA WROTE!

BY 1958 HER BROOKLYN DODGER’S WERE GONE

TO GREENER PASTURES IN L.A. WHERE HER LEGEND LIVES ON

WHEN YOU’RE IN DODGER STADIUM LOOK UP IN THE SKY

SHE’S CHEERING HER DODGERS RINGING BELLS FROM ON HIGH!

REPEAT CHORUS
