Back in Double O Seven
Miss M was Queen
She could roll like a pro rolls
When she was Seventeen
Whether straight or hammered
She was the best in town
When she released the red ball
All the pins fall down
Can't you hear the balls rumble
Can't you hear the balls rumble
Miss Marlene
We're still bowling
Every Saturday night
Saturday night
Your move to the lane child
Played on my heartstrings
With the long skinny legs child
And your hoop earrings
When the stakes are sky high
That's when you always shine
The ball would ride a moonbeam
Down the inside line
Can't you hear the balls rumble
Can't you hear the balls rumble
Miss Marlene
We're still bowling
Every Saturday night
Saturday night
And then one night
Something came apart
You threw back hurricanes
And we knew someone
Had played with your heart
Ran into the dark street
At University Place
Cab came up so fast then
We saw your laughing face
Can't you hear the balls rumble
Can't you hear the balls rumble
Miss Marlene
We're still bowling
Every Saturday night
Sometimes on a league night
I catch her scent again
Her hand guides my hand
We drop the seven ten
Can't you hear the balls rumble
Can't you hear the balls rumble
Miss Marlene
We're still bowling
Every Saturday night
Saturday night
Every Saturday night x4
