Lyrics:
{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 aren
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)
