I've got it all inside my head he said to me
This game is easy if you take it logically
I set the pick and that helps Karl to get free
There must be forty ways to be John Stockton
He said it really is my habit to assist
It's not my fault if that next shot is one that's missed
I get the ball to them with one quick flick of wrist
There must be forty ways to be John Stockton
Just hop on the court, Mort
See him drive through the key, Lee
Don't foul him on his drive, Clive
Or he'll make those throws free
He's got an excellent shot, Scott
He can drain the three, Lee
He's deadly for two, Lou
And he'll take it to you
He plays the game with his head, Fred
Be afraid when he drives, Clive
Don't try to foul him on the run, Son
Or he'll make it..."and one"
He's got an awesome fast break, Jake
Run the court with all speed, Reed
He'll hit you in stride, Clyde
So hang on for the ride
He's got a finger roll, Joel
See him assist to B-Russ, Gus
He'll even pass to Big-O, Joe
He's got backhead eyes, guys
See him get it to Malone, Sloan
Then to Marshall for the Jam, Sam
Get your body inside, Clyde
Ball's comin' to you
He said it grieves me so to turn over the ball
Assists are better that's what keeps me standing tall
That 4:1 ratio's really something to beat all
There must be forty ways to be John Stockton
Sloan said John's old now but he still puts up a fight
Back in the game John says I don't need much rest tonight
It was John's birthday so Sloan realized he probably was right
There must forty ways to be John Stockton
Forty ways to be John Stockton
Just hop on the court, Mort
See him drive through the key, Lee
Don't foul him on his drive, Clive
Or he'll make those throws free
He's got an excellent shot, Scott
He can drain the three, Lee
He's deadly for two, Lou
And he'll take it to you

Get your body inside, Clyde
Ball's comin' to you
