Bowling Ball Blues

I got the bowling ball blues When I first started bowling Just a spare was great An my score looked good At 108 They said if I practiced I could raise my game So I practiced and I practiced But I still play the same I got the bowling ball blues My wife she can beat me And my daughters too I think I'll hang up my bowling ball My bag and my shoes I got the bowling ball blues Now a friend said roll This ball of mine It's a finger tip And you get a better line So I tried a finger tip And all the rest Till my thumbs and my fingers Are in a heck of a mess I got the bowling ball blues My wife still beats me And my daughters too I think I'll hang up my bowling ball My bag and my shoes I got the bowling ball blues Bowling is fun That's what they say So I'm gonna try to bowl Another way to day If my wife still beats me And my daughters too I'm gonna hang up my bowling ball My bag and my shoes I got the bowling ball blues I got the bowling ball blues
