Lyrics
She left me at the alley in the middle of a frame
I lost my concentration and blew an important game
I ran and tried to stop her from walking out the door
I guess she's leaving me 'cause I can't roll the big score
I've got the bowling alley blues
"Cause I'm shooting 102's
And my team is gonna lose
I've got the bowling alley blues
Vito hands me the fingertip and says "do it for the team"
Striking through the tenth has been my one and only dream
Now she left with my wallet and the guys hid my shoes
Well I can't face those pins again so I'll go and get some booze
I've got the Bowling Alley Blues
"Cause I've lost my rented shoes
And I've got no money for my dues
I've got the bowling alley blues
I tried to hook it and make it turn but it doesn't seem to move
And all this drinking makes me dizzy and I can not see the groove
So I'll have to throw some strikes and really start to roll
I'm gonna show my women I can bowl
But I've got the bowling alley blues
"Cause I'm shooting 102's
And my team is gonna lose
I've got the bowling alley blues
