The Bill Walton Song
Ric Seaberg 2001

You were a stutterer… You were a big tall geek
You read Mother Jones and Willamette Week
You were a carrot top… You were the center's curse
You never ate red meat
And you knew Patty Hearst
Bill Walton…didn't I see you in a suit today
Callin' a game for the NBA…I tune in to hear your view
Bill Walton we're proud of you

I hear your sentiments….. I see your new acclaim
I hear you goin' off on somebody's game
You hated interviews ….. You were a malcontent
So how'd you get so doggone eloquent
Chorus
Solo
You took heat from the fans… You took heat from the press
It was a love-hate thing in PDX
Now you're a TV star..I am your humble fan
You are the quintessential color man
Bill Walton…Didn't I see you on the tube today
Ca llin' a game for the NBA I tune in to hear your view
Bill Walton we're proud of you…Bill Walton we're proud of you

Bill Walton.. Didn't I see you in a suit today
Callin' a game for the NBA…..Hope that ankle is better too!!
Bill Walton we're proud of you, didn’t I see etc
