The Grand Tour (of Alumni Hall)
Step right up, come on in
If you'd like to take the grand tour
Of this hoops mecca we all call home sweet home
We have nothing here to sell you
Just some things that we will tell you
Some things I know will chill you to the bone
If you are able, see the scorers table
Where Mullin would sit and berate the referee
Lavin's white sneakers, Keady's comb o'er
They're no more
And this old house will never be the same
Without Louie, Lapchick and good old Norm too
Through the door, that's the floor
Where Jackson, Artest and Sealy really flew
Lord knows we had a good thing going here
See their picture, on the wall
Don't it look like ten feet tall?
How they played and passed and pressed without any fear
There's their rings, all their things
And their sneakers are in the closet
Like they left them when they tore our world apart
While your tour here was cursory
Know that they left us without mercy
Taking nothing but the ball and our heart
Step right up
Come on in
(George Jones, The Grand Tour, 1974)
