"The Cubs Go All the Way" is an original song written and recorded by crooner Frank Lamphere. The tune was conceived and penned in 2012 prior to Frank performing in a baseball themed show in New York. The initial lyrics were based on the New York Mets, but modifed in 2014 for Lamphere's hometown team, the Chicago Cubs. The tune was given a "face-lift" after it's initial unreleased studio recording in 2019.
A highly energetic, swingin' baseball song from singer Frank Lamphere; whose childhood dream (like ten million other kids) was to be a major leaguer. Among Frank's baseball heros were: Reggie Jackson, Dave Kingman, Goose Gossage and Willie Stargell.

The Cubs Go All the Way (lyrics & music) Frank Lamphere
Count on, plenty of high fiving
To a pennant they'll be driving
And the Cubs Go All the Way
Our starter's fastball will be burning
Double plays they'll be turning
And the Cubs Go All the Way
Now this rival team you see
Will go down like one-two-three
We're going to show them what defense is all about
A pop-up caught behind the plate
Their all-star slugger who swung late
And crowd roar when the umpire yells "You’re Out!"
Then they'll have to face our hitters
Their staff best have the jitters
And the Cubs Go All the Way
Homers hit to upper decks
When our cleanup man connects
And the Cubs Go All the Way
This team seems truly on a mission
And the very definition
Of a ball club, that really has a chance
Us fans will hardly keep from grinning
In September we keep winning
And then we take first place to stay
And the Cubs Go All the Way!
Additional verse:
It'll be no laughing matter
When they have to face our batters
And the Cubs Go All the Way
Scoring runs and stealing bases
Line drives hit to open spaces
And the Cubs Go All the Way
