I remember sittin’ at that house
Livin’ room couch
Thinkin’ no way them boys wouldn’t win
Between them big three pitchers
Andruw and Chipper
It was gonna be hard to keep up with the Joneses
But as fate would have it
That Atlanta magic got put out by them damn Padres
And I guess destiny ain’t always meant to be
Kinda like you and me that day

We got close, but close doesn’t cut it
Had a good run to end up with nothin’
But a 3×5 that you hide in a drawer
We swung for the fences and came up short
Yeah, you win some, you lose some
It ain’t always home runs
And that’s just the way life plays
If we were a team and love was a game
Then we’d have been the ’98 Braves

Had that whole town believin’
Damn, girl, I even had that talk
To your dad man to man
But just like that season
Girl, you and me didn’t end with a ring on a hand

We got close but close doesn’t cut it
Had a good run to end up with nothin’
But a 3×5 that you hide in a drawer
We swung for the fences and came up short
Yeah, you win some, you lose some
It ain’t always home runs
And that’s just the way life plays
If we were a team and love was a game
Then we’d have been the ’98 Braves
’98 Braves

You win some, you lose some
It ain’t always home runs
Girl, it coulda gone either way
But if we were a team and love was a game
We’d have been the ’98 Braves
If we were a team and love was a game
We’d have been the ’98 Braves
’98 Braves
Oh yeah, girl, we’d have been the ’98 Braves
’98 Braves
We’d have been the ’98 Braves

I remember sittin’ at that house
Livin’ room couch
Thinkin’ no way them boys wouldn’t win

So, us, Stray Kids, would like to say thank you to STAY and Billboard for giving us an unforgettable gift. We promise to return the favor with our upcoming music, performances and love. Thank you, guys. Thank you STAY!

Thank you!

Mariah Carey
Thank you babies. Thank you. Thank you so much. I couldn’t ask for better presenters than Roc and Roe. Thank you guys. Alright well, I just want to say Billboard has been an integral part of my life for a very long time now. Even though I don’t acknowledge time, I kind of have to admit that some of my most memorable times in my career are connected to Billboard and the BBMAs. One thing I really have to say is that I’m so grateful for the fact that my fans have been here with me through the hits, the misses, the No. 1 and the bubbling unders. I love you so much. This award is particularly special to me because the song itself changed my entire life. When I first sat down to write “All I Want For Christmas Is You.” I never could have imagined that I would be standing here three months later accepting a special award for it okay, so I just want to say thank you to everyone who’s allowed this song to be part of their holiday soundtrack each year. I’m so honored to be receiving this award for this little songs chart achievements but the greatest achievement for me is being here with all of you and feeling the love that only music can generate. Thank you so much!

I don’t want a lot for Christmas
There is just one thing I need
I don’t care about the presents
Underneath the Christmas tree
I just want you for my own
More than you could ever know
Make my wish come true
All I want for Christmas is you, yeah

I don’t want a lot for Christmas
There is just one thing I need (and I)
Don’t care about the presents
Underneath the Christmas tree
I don’t need to hang my stocking
There upon the fireplace (I)
Santa Claus won’t make me happy
With a toy on Christmas day

I just want you for my own (ooh)
More than you could ever know (ooh)
Make my wish come true
All I want for Christmas is you (you, baby)

I won’t ask for much this Christmas
I won’t even wish for snow (and I)
I just wanna keep on waiting
Underneath the mistletoe

I won’t make a list and send it
To the North Pole for Saint Nick (I)
I won’t even stay awake
To hear those magic reindeer click

‘Cause I just want you here tonight (ooh)
Holding on to me so tight (ooh)
What more can I do
Oh, baby all I want for Christmas is you (you, baby)

All the lights are shining
So brightly everywhere
And the sound of children’s
Laughter fills the air (oh)

And everyone is singing (oh, yeah)
I hear those sleigh bells ringing
Santa won’t you bring me (yeah)
The one I really need (oh)
Won’t you please bring my baby to me quickly

I don’t want a lot for Christmas
This is all I’m asking for (I)
I just wanna see my baby
Standing right outside my door

I just want you for my own (ooh)
More than you could ever know (ooh)
Make my wish come true
Baby, all I want for Christmas is you (you, baby)

All I want for Christmas is you, baby
All I want for Christmas is you, baby
All I want for Christmas is you, baby
All I want for Christmas is you, baby
All I want for Christmas is you, baby

Dicen que soy mamón, también que soy culero
No les pongo atención y muy poco les creo
No sufro de conciencia, yo cuido mi cuero
Se me activa el instinto con un buen veneno
Pendiente al celular y también de los medio’
Pa’ que no haya problemas por estos terrenos
Ando bien protegido desde allá del cielo
Te adelantaste hermano, luego nos veremos
Nomás me quedan los que aquí traigo colgando
Son pocas amistades a mi lado
Me cuidan los collares que traigo en el pecho
Alejan las envidias y a los traicioneros

Y aquí sigo por el camino
Casi siempre me ven tranquilo
Cumpliendo mi objetivo, pienso positivo
Siempre con un gallo me verán activo
Para trabajar me pinto
Los billetes no caen solitos
Moviendo esos paquetes llenos de cuadritos
Verdes dolaritos, puros Benjamines me hacen generar

Ahí me vieron pasar en un Rubicón
Suman los Cryptos y bajo control
Nos mantenemos a la orden del señor
Con un gallo me relajo yo
Allá en las dunas, siempre tranquilón
Compa, ando torcido, ya me pegó el blunt
En la orilla del mar me verán
Con hierbita pa’ desestresar
Siempre a la orden y aquí voy a estar
Y para qué voy a hablar de más
Por “El Chapillo” me han de apodar
La bandera es internacional
Efectivo para trabajar
En el equipo piñas y también SCAR
Y pa’ los que quieran afectar
Creo en mis santos y en el Elegua
Y hablando de antes, no voy a volver atrás
Hacer billetes es la prioridad

Y aquí sigo por el camino
Casi siempre me ven tranquilo
Cumpliendo mi objetivo, pienso positivo
Siempre con un gallo me verán activo
Para trabajar me pinto
Los billetes no caen solitos
Moviendo esos paquetes llenos de cuadritos
Verdes dolaritos, puros Benjamines me hacen generar
