    It's rare to hear a song that is equally inspired by James Brown and Burl Ives, but here it is! This is the semi-true story of a real true man and zen baseball fan who used to wander around Arcata, California, much as did several members of the band. Done funk-dance stylie!

    Story Behind the Song
    It's inspiring to meet someone who truly knows what in life pleases them and
    who has no pretense of being anything but exactly what they are. Such a man
    was Paul and such a pleasure was his American pastime. This mental state of
    "zentardation" has been the lifelong goal of lyricist Mr. Trail- and when
    the band stews up a greasy groove like the one on "Baseball Paul", he is
    elevated to a state where, in the persona of Burl Brown, he has got to, got
    to, get funky. If you're out of it from the get go, three strikes can never
    sit you down!



    Lyrics
    As this song was improvised, the words never got written down but it is safe
    to assume that they mostly rhyme with "ball" and "Paul."
