Big Boy

A shoe shine boy gave me a nickel

With a smile on his face

The school kids would give me some gin

If I would let them in

They were shaking all over

Ran into a friend with a lonely lady on his arm

Woke up in my garage, I was holding my own

Can't remember where I'd been

I was aching all over

From rolling on the stone

I was aching all over from rolling on the hard stone.

Ooh, what a night you can have when you're a big boy

Ooh, what a night you can have when you're a real big boy

Ooh, what a night you can have when you're a big boy

Ooh, what a night you can have when you're a real big boy

Kissin' cousins just ain't my style

Not like some knight in shining armour

Touring with the sideshow

That was my blow

But we hung on for the fun

Lots of fun for everyone

Ooh, what a night you can have when you're a big boy

Ooh, what a night you can have when you're a real big boy

Ooh, what a night you can have when you're a big boy

Ooh, what a night you can have when you're a real big boy

Till the danger man with his danger plan

He took me aside

And then he took me apart

I was a young man with love in my heart

Oh, how he made me pay

It was the hard way

It was the hard way

Ooh, what a night you can have when you're a big boy

Ooh, what a night you can have when you're a real big boy

Ooh, what a night you can have when you're a big boy

Ooh, what a night!
