You asked, we deliver:

Meet the Mets, Meet the Mets,

Step right up and greet the Mets,

Bring your kiddies, bring your wife,

Guaranteed to have the time of your life

Because the Mets are really socking the ball

Knocking those homers over the wall.

East side, West side ev'rybody's coming down,

to meet the M-E-T-S Mets from New York town.

Oh the butcher and the baker and the people on the street

Where do they go? To meet the Mets!

Oh they're clapping and their shouting when they sit down in their seats

Where do they go? To meet the Mets!

Oh their hearts beat true for the Orange and Blue

So grab your hat and come right down

'Cause we've got ourselves a ballclub, the Mets of New York Town!

Give 'em a yell, give 'em a hand,

And let them know your cheering in the stands!

Come on and..

Meet the Mets! Meet the Mets!

Our hats are tipped for that swingin' set!

Near the airport, near the bay

Jets and Boats are so near to Shea!

'Cos the Great World's Fair is right down the road!

A World of Tomorrow just can't be ignored.

Roos-e-velt Avenue, the L.I.E.

Will take you to the place to be!

In a jazzy fedora or a pillbox hat

We'll welcome you, and that's where it's at.

Come share a slice of the toast of the town,

you won't be bored

when cheering our heroes in '64.

Don't know about organ recordings, but I saw Jarvis play here at the Buskirk-Chumley two years ago for the Hoagy Carmichael festival, and she was fantastic! In her mid-eighties, but her performer's fire still burns brightly.
