Back in double-oh-se ven
Miss M was queen
She could roll like a pro rolls
When she was seventeen
Wheteher straight or ha mmered
She was the best in town
When she release the red ball
All pins fall down
Cant you hear the balls rum ble
Cant you hear the balls rum ble
Miss Marlene--were still bowling
Every Saturday night
Saturday night
Your move to the lane child
Played on my heartstrings
With you long skinny legs child
And your hoop earrings
When the stakes were sky- high
Thats when youd always shine
The ball would ride a moon beam
Down the inside lane
Cant you hear the balls rum ble
Cant you hear the balls rum ble
Miss Marlene were bowling
Every Saturday night
Saturday night
-9+9+5
And then one night
Something came apart
You were thrown back hurricanes
Bmaj6/9
And we knew some
Cdim7 -5 +9+5
Had played with your heart
You ran into the dark street
At University Place
The cab came up so fast then
We saw your laughin face
Cant you hear the balls rum ble
Cant you hear the balls rum ble
Miss Marlene were bowling
Every Saturday night
Sometimes on a
league night
I catch her scent again
Her hand guiding my hand
We drop the seven-ten
Cant you hear the balls rum ble
Cant you hear the balls rum ble
Miss Mar lene were bowling
Every Saturday nite
Saturday night
Every Saturday night
Every Saturday night
. . . Repeat
