The sheet music for "Let's Keep
The Dodgers In Brooklyn" was published
by Famous Music Corporation; music by
Roy Ross, words by Sam Denoff and Bill
Persk. Recorded by Phil Foster on Coral
Records, the 1957 song was written as a
futile plea to keep the Dodgers in
Brooklyn. Foster, is best known for his
role as Frank DeFazio, Laverne’s
pizzeria-owning father, on the hit TV
show “Laverne and Shirley.”
With
the words sung in Brooklynese, the
recording left out the verse
"Our
Prospect Park is pretty, the pride of
or great city, but offer it we gladly
do; But until when Kingdom comes,
please leave us wid our bums, O’Malley
that’s all we want from you" it was
instead replaced with "Billy, what
would Brooklyn be without the Dodgers?
Well Brooklyn will be, like a," then
the song continues into the verse starting with, "Like a
pair of socks that’s holey..."

Say, did you hear the news
about what’s happenin’ in Brooklyn?
We really got the blues about what’s happenin’ in Brooklyn
It ain’t official yet We hope official it don’t get
But beware my friend, and let me warn ya,
they’re think’ a taink’ the Bums to California
Let’s keep the Dodgers in Brooklyn
A house is not a home without some love
Don’t let them leave our premises,
L.A. would be their nemises,
‘cause Brooklyn fits the Dodgers like a glove
Mister Walter O’Malley, we always called you “pally,”
we stuck with you through thick and thin
But if you take away the Dodgers,
guys like Campy, Newk and Hodges
We ain’t your pal so more the way we been
Let’s keep the Dodgers in Brooklyn
A house is not a home without some love
Don’t let them leave our premises,
L.A. would be their nemises,
‘cause Brooklyn fits the Dodgers like a glove
We offer our bridges.
You can take ‘em wid yez,
we have a couple we could spare
But we’d all feel so glum
wid’out the Duke and Gilliam,
We’d need one left to jump off in despair
Our Prospect Park is pretty,
the pride of or great city,
but offer it we gladly do;
But until when Kingdom comes,
please leave us wid our bums
O’Malley that’s all we want from you
"Billy, what would Brooklyn
be without the Dodgers? Well Brooklyn will be, like a,"
Like a pair of socks that’s holey
widout Jackson and Cimoli,
Like a bed widout a pillow Oskine and Furillo,
Like a ship widout a harbor widout Podres and the Barber
Like the sun when it don’t shine widout Zimmer and Labine
Like the boids widout a bee widout Alston and Pewee
And here I am a poet and I didn’t even know it
So send the Phils to Trenton, the Giants to St. Paul,
but keep the Dodgers in Brooklyn, the greatest borough
of all
So let’s keep the Dodgers in Brooklyn
You’ve heard our plea, at last we had our say
Your mind is in a fog, if you take them to that smog
Leave the Dodgers in Brooklyn in, U.S.A. We really love
‘em,
Keep the Dodgers in Brooklyn, U.S.A.
