Batter up, hear that call,

The time has come for one and all, to play ball.

For we're the members of the All-American League,

We come from cities near and far.

We've got Canadians,Irishmen and Swedes.

We're all for one, we're one for all, we're All-American.

Each girl stands, her head so proudly high

Her motto DO or DIE,

She's not the one to use or need an alibi.

Our chaperones are not too soft, they're not too tough.

Our managers are on the ball.

We've got a president who really knows his stuff.

We're all for one, we're one for all, we're All-Americans.

--sung by the members of the AAGPBL before every game.
