LYRICS FROM AN ORPHAN TO A KING
| FROM AN ORPHAN TO A KING: Way back in 1952, I sat in Fraser Field in Lynn, Mass and watched the greatest pitcher I ever saw. He pitched from second base blind folded and struck out the batter. He also threw pitches behind his back and through his legs and still struck batters out. Plus, he was only playing with three other players against a 9 man team. He is one of the greatest barnstormers of all time and millions of fans have been privileged to see him. From an Orphan to a King is my song tribute to this man.

I was sure that it came from the Normandy Invasion. Overlooking the beach on the bluffs were still existing German Gun bunkers. I have wondered whatever happened to that man who carried that rifle. What has emerged is my song: If this Rifle Could Talk
