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
Cant remember where Id 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 youre a big boy
Ooh, what a night you can have when youre a real big boy
Ooh, what a night you can have when youre a big boy
Ooh, what a night you can have when youre a real big boy

Kissin cousins just aint my style
Not like some knight in shining armour
Touring with the sideshow
[ From: http://www.elyrics.net ]
That was my blow
But we hung on for the fun
Lots of fun for everyone

Ooh, what a night you can have when youre a big boy
Ooh, what a night you can have when youre a real big boy
Ooh, what a night you can have when youre a big boy
Ooh, what a night you can have when youre 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 youre a big boy
Ooh, what a night you can have when youre a real big boy
Ooh, what a night you can have when youre a big boy
Ooh, what a night!
