    I can't get no satisfaction
    I can't get no satisfaction
    'cause i try and i try and i try and i try
    I can't get no, i can't get no

    When i'm drivin' in my car
    And that man comes on the radio
    He's tellin' me more and more
    About some useless information
    Supposed to fire my imagination
    I can't get no, oh no no no
    Hey hey hey, that's what i say

    I can't get no satisfaction
    I can't get no satisfaction
    'cause i try and i try and i try and i try
    I can't get no, i can't get no

    When i'm watchin' my tv
    And that man comes on to tell me
    How white my shirts can be
    But he can't be a man 'cause he doesn't smoke
    The same cigarrettes as me
    I can't get no, oh no no no
    Hey hey hey, that's what i say

    I can't get no satisfaction
    I can't get no girl reaction
    'cause i try and i try and i try and i try
    I can't get no, i can't get no

    When i'm ridin' round the world
    And i'm doin' this and i'm signing that
    And i'm tryin' to make some girl
    Who tells me baby better come back later next week
    'cause you see i'm on losing streak
    I can't get no, oh no no no
    Hey hey hey, that's what i say

    I can't get no, i can't get no
    I can't get no satisfaction
    No satisfaction, no satisfaction, no satisfaction

    I live in an apartment on the ninety-ninth floor of my block
    And I sit at home looking out the window
    Imagining the world has stopped
    Then in flies a guy who's all dressed up like a Union Jack
    And says, I've won five pounds if I have his kind of detergent pack

    I said, Hey! You! Get off of my cloud
    Hey! You! Get off of my cloud
    Hey! You! Get off of my cloud
    Don't hang around 'cause two's a crowd
    On my cloud, baby

    The telephone is ringing
    I say, "Hi, it's me. Who is it there on the line?"
    A voice says, "Hi, hello, how are you
    Well, I guess I'm doin' fine"
    He says, "It's three a.m., there's too much noise
    Don't you people ever wanna go to bed?
    Just 'cause you feel so good, do you have
    To drive me out of my head?"

    I said, Hey! You! Get off of my cloud
    Hey! You! Get off of my cloud
    Hey! You! Get off of my cloud
    Don't hang around 'cause two's a crowd
    On my cloud baby

    I was sick and tired, fed up with this
    And decided to take a drive downtown
    It was so very quiet and peaceful
    There was nobody, not a soul around
    I laid myself out, I was so tired and I started to dream
    In the morning the parking tickets were just like
    A flag stuck on my window screen

    I said, Hey! You! Get off of my cloud
    Hey! You! Get off of my cloud
    Hey! You! Get off of my cloud
    Don't hang around 'cause two's a crowd
    On my cloud

    Hey! You! Get off of my cloud
    Hey! You! Get off of my cloud
    Hey! You! Get off of my cloud
    Don't hang around, baby, two's a crowd

    The wind blows rain into my face
    The sun glows at the end of the highway
    Child of the moon, rub your rainy eyes
    Oh, child of the moon
    Give me a wide-awake crescent-shaped smile

    She shivers, by the light she is hidden
    She flickers like a lamp lady vision
    Child of the moon, rub your rainy eyes
    Child of the moon
    Give me a wide-awake crescent-shaped smile

    The first car on the foggy road riding
    The last star for my lady is pining
    Oh, child of the moon, bid the sun arise
    Oh, child of the moon
    Give me a misty day, pearly gray, silver, silky faced,
    Wide-awake crescent-shaped smile

    << <i>While I very much like the Stones, the Beatles had WAY MORE hits.

    As for the original question, I'm going to guess Brooks Robinson. >>




    Oh definitely the Beatles I guess were #1. I wouldn't be surprised if one of those Motown groups like the Supremes may have been #2. Stones definitely up there of course. Lyrics from the Stones I think are very underrated. Problem was nobody could hardly understand the words in Jagger's singing. - LOL

    Just from the tone of the OP - I think this player might be someone you wouldn't think of - a good player of course but perhaps a non Hall of Famer?

    I'll guess Frank Robinson.

    Vada Pinson---1776 total

    Wills was 4 - I got that after about ten tries. Couldn't think of Pinson - admittedly I had to Google it.

    An interesting website.

    Brown Sugar - Rolling Stones, lyrics

    Gold coast slave ship bound for cotton fields,
    Sold in a market down in new orleans.
    Scarred old slaver know hes doin alright.
    Hear him whip the women just around midnight.
    Ah brown sugar how come you taste so good
    (a-ha) brown sugar, just like a young girl should
    A-huh.

    Drums beating, cold english blood runs hot,
    Lady of the house wondrin where its gonna stop.
    House boy knows that hes doin alright.
    You should a heard him just around midnight.
    Ah brown sugar how come you taste so good
    (a-ha) brown sugar, just like a black girl should
    A-huh.

    I bet your mama was a tent show queen, and all her boy
    Friends were sweet sixteen.
    Im no schoolboy but I know what I like,
    You should have heard me just around midnight.

    Ah brown sugar how come you taste so good
    (a-ha) brown sugar, just like a young girl should.

    I said yeah, I said yeah, I said yeah, I said
    Oh just like a, just like a black girl should.

    I said yeah, I said yeah, I said yeah, I said
    Oh just like, just like a black girl should.

    I would have guessed either Pete Rose or YAZ... maybe even Al Kaline

    Experience the World through Numismatics...it's more than you can imagine.
