I Don't Get No Run Support
to the tune of Bill Withers' Ain't No Sunshine When She's Gone
© Copyright 2005 by J-Mag Guthrie

I don't get no run support
They never score runs when I start
I don't get no run support and my numbers come up short
When the Cy Young talking starts

When I was starting on the mound
Eight times this year we've been shut out
When I've started on the mound, they didn't bring the bats around
Just took their turns at making outs.

I know, I know, I know, I know, I know,
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know,
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know,
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know,
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know,
I know, the guys come up a little short
I don't get no run support
Often when I'm on the mound.

If I had some run support,
By now I would have 20 wins
And I wouldn't come up short, I'd even get support
To win the Cy Young once again.
