  			            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   


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)
