[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
