leon russell

i'm up in oakland on a saturday night

lord

i said i just didn't feel right

goodnight

ladies all around

but the right one hadn't found me such a bad night

i didn't feel right

then a friend came over 'fore it got too late

asked me if i'd like you as a double date

my stars above

i fell in love

with the queen of the roller derby

yeah

the queen of the roller derby

now queenie's a lady

she's quite a child

oh

she'll make you feel fine

remember the time when a trucker from dallas

was callous to queenie with his rude side

now he can't deny

that he gotten much more

than balled before

queenie's right across

running to the floor

now he knows better than to mate

with the queen of the roller derby

the queen of the roller derby

oh

as fast as a bullet

she can jam all night

makes a full grown wonder bull die with fright

when we get home

alone in love

she murmurs like a sweet moaning dove

ooh

oh

such a lady

she's quite a child

she'll make me feel good in this heart of mine

she's my love

she's a lady

she's the queen of the roller derby

ah

the queen of the roller derby

i'm talkin' 'bout the queen of the roller derby

yeah

she's the queen of the roller derby

oh

queen of the roller derby

she's the queen of the roller derby

ooh
