I'm Already In The (record)

Rickey Was Never Motivated By Stats. He Was Motivated By Numbers. Wins, Runs, Steals.

I Told Myself That If I Ever Make It To The Big Leagues That I Would Be The One To Appreciate The Fans. Take A Little Time Out To Sign Autographs And Shake Their Hands And Say Hello To Them.

When I Was Growing Up, My Favorite Player Was Reggie Jackson - And I Never Got The Opportunity To Get An Autograph From Reggie. I Was So Frustrated. I Mean, He Was My Idol. And I Couldn't Get No Autograph. I Would Go Through Punishment Waiting On Him (after Games) Because He Was Always The Last Guy To Come Out. And I Would Go Back Home With No Autograph.

Listen: People Are Always Saying, 'rickey Says Rickey.' But It's Been Blown Way Out Of Proportion. People Might Catch Me, When They Know I'm Ticked Off, Saying, 'rickey, What The Heck Are You Doing, Rickey?' They Say, 'darn, Rickey, What Are You Saying Rickey For? Why Don't You Just Say, 'i?' But I Never Did. I Always Said, 'rickey,' And It Become Something For People To Joke About.

To All The Kids Out There: Follow Your Dream. Believe In Your Dream. Because Dreams Do Come True.
