Lyrics
Well, I really had a ball last night
I held all the pretty boys tight
I was feeling single, seeing double
Wound up in a whole lotta trouble
But today I'll face the big fight
But I really had a ball last night
Well, I came home from work this morning
My baby was feeling low
And he told me what was on his mind
Then he told me where I could go
Well, I didn't go where he told me to
'Cause the water was cold in the lake
Now there's something fishy about this whole deal
I don't see where I made my mistake
Well, I really had a ball last night
Oh, I held all the pretty boys tight
I was feeling single, seeing double
Wound up in a whole lotta trouble
But today I'll face the big fight
Well I really had a ball last night
When I woke up this morning
Like me, the sun was high
Well, I started walking the long way home
Just to think of an alibi
Well, I couldn't think of a darn little thing
That hadn't already been said
So, I guess I better just play it by ear
For I'm already dead
Well, I really had a ball last night
Oh, I held all the pretty boys tight
I was feeling single, seeing double
Wound up in a whole lotta trouble
But today I'll face the big fight
But I really had a ball last night
Yes, today I'll face the big fight
But I really had a ball last night
