Sam Smith is a Grammy-winning artist who won Song of the Year for "Stay with Me." Sam Smith is also an Ole Miss pitcher who lost his Sunday starting gig after a 1-4, 7.81 ERA start to the 2015 season.
Here's the Grammy-winning artist's version:
And here's the ERA-challenged pitcher's remix:
***
Guess it's true I'm not good at a weekend stand
But I still gave you that Louisville win
These starts never seem to go to plan
I don't want to get pulled will you leave me in
--
(Chorus)
Oh won't you staaay with me?
I'll just wooork offspeed
Bianco staaay with me
--
Why am I so emotional?
Yea my hook's gone flat and I've lost control
Deep into games I never work
But one more at-bat sure couldn't hurt
--
(Chorus)
Oh won't you staaay with me?
I'll just wooork offspeed
This herniaaa ain't hurtin me
Bianco staaay with me
