E5
Gonna tell you a story you won't believe
A5
But I fell in love last Friday evening
B7 A5 E5 B7
With a girl I saw on the bar room TV screen
E5
Well I was just getting ready to get my hat
A5
When she caught my eye and I put it back
B7 A5 E5
And I ordered myself a couple more shots and beers
[Refrão]E5 G A5 E5
The night that I fell in love with a Roller Derby Queen
(round and round, oh round and round)
G A5 B7
Meanest hunk of woman that anybody ever seen
Down in the arena
E5
She was five-foot-six and two-fifteen
A5
A bleached-blond mama with a streak of mean
B7 A5 E5 B7
She knew how to knuckle and she knew how to scuffle and fight
E5
The roller derby program said
A5
That she was built like a 'frigerator with a head
B7 A5 E5
Her fans called her Tuffy But all her buddies called her Spike
(Chorus)
(BRIDGE)
E5
Round and round, go round and round
A5
Round and round, go round and round
B7 A5 E5
E5
Well I could not help it but I fell in love
A5
With this heavy duty women I've been speaking of
B7 A5 E5 B7
Things were kinda bad till the day she skated into my life
E5
Well she might be nasty, and she might be fat
A5
But I never met a person who would tell her that
B7 A5 E5
She's my big blonde bomber, my heavy-handed hackensack mama
(Chorus)
(BRIDGE)
