| Sweatin' hard, I didn’t get a shot
|
| All I did was stand around and get too hot
|
| Knowin' all the people walkin' on my side
|
| Losin' all my money and I’m getting tired
|
| All the women come a-runnin' like he’s Getty’s son
|
| Makes you kind of jealous but it sure is fun
|
| I don’t mind, but he wants my lady too
|
| You know the crowd gets bigger as the word goes 'round
|
| Pool hall king was playin' back in town
|
| Minnesota Fats standin' up at the back
|
| Tryin' to hide himself in a plastic mack
|
| You ought to hear the silence when the kid walks in
|
| His reputation’s bigger than gasoline
|
| I don’t mind but he’s tryin' to fill my lady too
|
| Pool Hall Richard, you’re far too wicked we know
|
| Pool Hall Richard, kid you’re wicked, we know
|
| You broke more hearts than a gigolo could ever do
|
| With your yellow carnation and your pink satin shoe
|
| You make me jealous but I worship you
|
| One day soon I’m gonna beat you clean
|
| Wipe that smile right off your chin
|
| Everybody gonna drive from miles around
|
| Cuein' up to see me take away your crown
|
| Then you’ll never never ever take my lady then
|
| Pool Hall Richard, you’re far too wicked we know
|
| Pool Hall Richard, kid you’re wicked, we know
|
| You broke more hearts than a gigolo could ever do
|
| Bam goes the brown, that’s another one down
|
| Know they play much better when the sun goes down
|
| Bang goes the green, you’re so obscene
|
| Your hands are dirty but your scent is clean
|
| Bam goes the blue, lock away your cue
|
| The pool hall king is hustlin' you
|
| Bam goes the 8-ball, didn’t see it spin at all
|
| This kid can play, oh yeah
|
| Bam goes the brown, ooh another one down
|
| Know they play much better when the sun goes down
|
| Bang goes the green, you’re so obscene
|
| Your hands are dirty, your scent is clean
|
| Damn the pink, one more to sink
|
| Gonna beat you someday 'cause you’re makin' me sick
|
| Down on the black, at the back of the pack
|
| Aw, you nearly missed, you ain’t so hot
|
| Pool Hall Richard, kid you’re wicked, we know
|
| You broke more hearts than a gigolo could ever do
|
| You’re breakin' my heart
|
| But you’re stealin' my tart
|
| Shut up |
