Fat Bottomed Girls Lyrics

[PUCK with the NEW DIRECTIONS boys]
Ooh, you gonna take me home tonight
Ooh, down beside that red firelight
Ooh, you gonna let it all hang out
Fat bottomed girls, you make the rockin' world go round

[PUCK]
Hey
I was just a skinny lad
Never knew no good from bad
But I knew love before I left my nursery, huh
Left alone with big fat fanny
She was such a naughty nanny
Heap big woman you made a bad boy out of me

Hey hey!
Ho!

I've been singing with my band
Across the wire across the land
I seen every blue eyed floozy on the way, hey
But their beauty and their style
Went kind of smooth after a while
Take me to them lardy ladies every time
C'mon
[PUCK with the NEW DIRECTIONS boys]
Ooh, won't you take me home tonight?
Ooh, down beside that red firelight
Ooh, and you give it all you got
Fat bottomed girls, you make the rockin' world go round
Fat bottomed girls, you make the rockin' world go round

[PUCK]
Hey, listen here
I've got mortgages and homes
I got stiffness in my bones
Ain't no beauty queens in this locality, I tell you
Oh but I still get my pleasure
Still got my greatest treasure
Hey big woman you gonna make a big man of me
Now get this

[PUCK with the NEW DIRECTIONS boys, (PUCK)]
Ooh (I know) you gonna take me home tonight (Please)
Ooh, down beside that red firelight
Ooh, you gonna let it all hang out
Fat bottomed girls, you make the rockin' world go round (Yeah)
Fat bottomed girls, you make the rockin' world go round

[PUCK & (NEW DIRECTIONS boys)]
Get on your bikes and ride
Ooh yeah, ooh yeah, them fat bottomed girls (Fat bottomed girls)
Yeah yeah yeah, alright, ride em' cowboy (Fat bottomed girls)
Yes yes
