HAVE MYSELF A BALL
(W.J. Bowen)
BILL BOWEN & THE RACKETS (METEOR 5033, 1956)

Well, I'm goin' out and have myself a ball
I won't be back no more tonight at all
I'm tired of waitin' here for you
Gonna stop this doggone cryin' too
Goin' out and have myself a ball

Well, ball-ball-ball, gonna squall 'n' ball
Well, ball-ball-ball, I'm gonna squall 'n' ball
I'm goin' out and have myself a ball
(Have a ball boy!)

You strut around just like you own the world
I guess you think you're everybody's girl
But one of these days you're gonna get fooled
If you don't watch and play it cool
Somebody's gonna tear your playhouse down

Well, I'm goin' out and have myself a ball
I won't be back no more tonight at all
I'm tired of waitin' here for you
Gonna stop this doggone cryin' too
Goin' out and have myself a ball
(Yeah, let's go!)

Well, you strut around just like you own the world
I guess you think you're everybody's girl
But one of these days you're gonna get fooled
If you don't watch and play it cool
Somebody's gonna tear your playhouse down

Well, I'm goin' out and have myself a ball
I won't be back no more tonight at all
I'm tired of waitin' here for you
Gonna stop this doggone cryin' too
Goin' out and have myself a ball

Well, ball-ball-ball, I'm gonna squall 'n' ball
Well, ball-ball-ball, I'm gonna squall 'n' ball
I'm goin' out and have a squallin' ball
