ROLLER DERBY QUEEN
Words and music by Jim Croce

<E7>Gonna tell you a story you won't believe
But <A7>I fell in love last Friday evening
With a <B7>girl I saw on a <A7>bar room TV <E7>screen
<E7>Well I was just gettin' ready to get my hat
When she <A7>caught my eye and I put it back
And <B7>ordered myself a <A7>couple o' more shots and <E7>beers

CHORUS:
The night that <G7>I fell in love with a <A7>roller derby <E7>queen
(Round and round, oh round and round)
<G7>Meanest hunk o' woman that <A7>anybody ever <B7>seen
Down in the arena

She was <E7>five-foot-six and two-fifteen
A <A7>bleached-blonde mama with a streak of mean
She <B7>knew how to knuckle
And she <A7>knew how to scuffle and <E7>fight

The roller derby program said
That she was <A7>built like a 'frigerator with a head
Her <B7>fans call her Tuffy
But <A7>all her buddies call her <E7>Spike

(CHORUS)

BRIDGE:
<E7>Round and round, go round and round
<A7>Round and round, go round and round
<B7> <A7> <E7>

Well I could not help but to fall in love
With this heavy-duty woman I've been speakin' of
Things were kind of bad until the day she skated into my life
Well she might be nasty, and she might be fat
But I never met a person who would tell her that
She's my big blonde bomber, my heavy-handed Hackensack mama

(CHORUS)

(BRIDGE)
