LYRICS: 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 the Roller Derby Queen (Round 'n' round, oh round 'n' round) The meanest hunk o' woman That anybody ever seen Down in the arena She was 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 was built like a 'fridgerator with a head The fans called her "Tuffy" But all her buddies called her "Spike" The night that I fell in love with the Roller Derby Queen (Round 'n' round, oh round 'n' round) The meanest hunk o' woman That anybody ever seen Down in the arena (INSTRUMENTAL INTERLUDE) 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 could tell her that She's my bleach blonde bomber My heavy handed Hackensack mama The night that I fell in love with the Roller Derby Queen (Round 'n' round, oh round 'n' round) The meanest hunk o' woman That anybody ever seen Down in the arena Written by James Croce • Copyright © BMG Rights Management US, LLC

Ron Wells Thanks bro

Jim Croce was and still is an American Treasure. His storytelling style is bar-none. He’s so easy going about it, too. What a swell guy

his music fell of the map for years. glad to see people care about this.

Man was a fine fine Wordsmith...🇺🇸

It's truly a shame that he had to go so early.

i have an ex girl friend that was a roller derby queen and i played this for her all the time

My Late husband loved Jim Croce ,,, I love this song

hard to believe he was only 27 God we everybody looks so much older back then you look at kids now somebody who's 30 years old it's like you look like you're 18

I Love this song

Thanks so much for posting this video, I have not seen it in many years.
