Roller Derby Queen by Jim Croce
Roller Derby Queen
Tuning:E A D G B E
Capo:no capo
[Verse]
E7
Gonna tell you a story you won't believe
A7
But I fell in love last Friday evening
B7 A7 E7
With a girl I saw on the bar room TV screen
E7
Well I was just getting ready to grab my hat
A7
When she caught my eye and I put it back
B7 A7 E7
And I ordered myself a couple more shots and beers
[Chorus]
E7 G A7 E7
The night that I fell in love with a Roller Derby Queen
(round and round, oh round and round)
G A7 B7
Meanest hunk of women that anybody ever seen
Down in the arena
[Verse]
E7
She was five-foot-six and two-fifteen
A7
A bleached-blond mama with a streak of mean
B7 A7 E7
She knew how to knuckle and she knew how to scuffle and fight
E7
The roller derby program said
A7
That she was built like a 'frigerator with a head
B7 A7 E7
Her fans called her Tuffy But all her buddies called her Spike
[Chorus]
E7 G A7 E7
The night that I fell in love with a Roller Derby Queen
(round and round, oh round and round)
G A7 B7
Meanest hunk of women that anybody ever seen
Down in the arena
[Bridge]
E7
Round and round, go round and round
A7
Round and round, go round and round
B7 A7 E7
[Verse]
E7
Well I could not help it but I fell in love
A7
With this heavy duty women I've been speaking of
B7 A7 E7
Things were kinda bad till the day she skated into my life
E7
Well she might be nasty, and she might be fat
A7
But I never met a person who would tell her that
B7 A7 E7
She's my bleach blonde bomber, my heavy-handed hackensack mama
[Chorus]
E7 G A7 E7
The night that I fell in love with a Roller Derby Queen
(round and round, oh round and round)
G A7 B7
Meanest hunk of women that anybody ever seen
Down in the arena
[Bridge]
E7
Round and round, go round and round
A7
Round and round, go round and round
B7 A7 E7

Gonna tell you a story that you won't believe
But I fell in love last Friday evenin'
With a girl I saw on a bar room TV screen
Well I was just gettin' ready to get my hat
When she caught my eye and I put it back
And I ordered myself a couple o' more shots and beers
The night that I fell in love with a Roller Derby Queen
(Round 'n' round, oh round 'n' round)
The meanest hunk o' woman
That anybody ever seen
Down in the arena
She is a five foot six and two fifteen
A bleached-blonde mama with a streak of mean
She knew how to knuckle
And she knew how to scuffle and fight
And the roller derby program said
That she were built like a 'fridgerator with a head
The fans called her "Tuffy"
But all her buddies called her "Spike"
You know the night that I fell in love with a Roller Derby Queen
(Round 'n' round, oh round 'n' round)
The meanest hunk o' woman
That anybody ever seen
Down in the arena
Round 'n' round, go round 'n' round
Round 'n' round, go round 'n' round
Round 'n' round
Well I could not help it but to fall in love
With this heavy-duty woman I been speakin' of
Things looked kind of bad
Until the day she skated into my life
Well she might be nasty 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
The night (you know) that I fell in love with a Roller Derby Queen
(Round 'n' round, oh round 'n' round)
The meanest hunk o' woman
That anybody ever seen
Down in the arena
Round 'n' round, go round 'n' round
Round 'n' round, go round 'n' round
Round 'n' round
Round 'n' round, go round 'n' round
Round 'n' round, go round 'n' round
Round 'n' round
Round 'n' round, go round 'n' round
Round 'n' round, go round 'n' round
Round 'n' round
