[Intro: Freddie & Roger]
Okay, okay, this is called, uh, "Fat Bottomed Girls"
(Uh one, two, three, four)

[Chorus]
Are you gonna take me home tonight?
Oh, down beside your red firelight?
Are you gonna let it all hang out?
Fat bottomed girls, you make the rockin' world go round
Hey!

[Verse 1]
I was just a skinny lad
Never knew no good from bad
But I knew life before I left my nursery (Huh)
Left alone with big fat Fanny
She was such a naughty nanny
Big woman, you made a bad boy out of me

Hey, hey-hey-hey, right? Ayy, alright
Fat bottomed girls, go-go-go-go, yeah
Yeah

[Verse 2]
I’ve been singing with my band
Across the wire, across the land
I've 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 dirty ladies every time
Come on

[Chorus]
Are you gonna take me home tonight?
Oh, down beside your red firelight?
Oh, when 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

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 2]
Now I got mortgages and homes
I got stiffness in my bones
Ain't no beauty queens in this locality
I tell you
Oh, well, I still got my pleasure
Still got my greatest treasure
Big woman, you gon' make a big man of me
Now hear this

[Chorus]
Are you gonna take me home tonight? (Hey)
Oh, down beside your red firelight
Are you gonna let it all hang out?
Fat bottomed girls, you make the rocking world go round (Yeah)
Fat bottomed girls, you make the rocking world go round

[Outro]
Get on your bikes and ride ...
Ride 'em cowboy
Ride 'em! Come on, ready, go
That's the way I like it, yeah, yes, yes
You fat bottomed girls
You like 'em, you ride 'em, ooh
Ooh, ooh yeah, ooh yeah, alright

Fat bottomed girls
One more time, girls
Yeah, yeah
Alright!
Yeah! oh-oh
They get me, they get me, they get me, they get me, get me, get me, get me

Formed in 1970, Queen was a British rock band whose classic line-up consisted of Freddie Mercury on lead vocals and piano, Brian May on lead guitar, Roger Taylor on drums, and John Deacon on bass. Although Mercury and May wrote the bulk of the band’s material, all four contributed to the songwriting, churning out huge hits. Initially a progressive rock band with strong metal influences, their sound evolved dramatically over time. The band went on to refine, if not define “stadium rock,” as they grew to become one of the most beloved rock bands of all time.

Their early progressive phase spawned epic tracks like “March of the Black Queen” and one international hit “Killer Queen.” But it was their 1975 track “Bohemian Rhapsody” which catapulted the group to super-stardom. The song reigned at #1 on the UK charts for nine weeks and has since been praised as one of the greatest songs of all time

Moving away from their album-orientated sound, the band only grew in popularity with such songs as November 1976’s “Somebody to Love,” October 1977’s “We Are the Champions,” January 1979’s “Don’t Stop Me Now,” June 1980’s “Another One Bites the Dust,” January 1984’s “Radio Ga Ga,” and many more. These songs are so beloved that a musical based on the band’s discography, titled We Will Rock You, became one of West-End’s longest-running shows with a 12-year run through May 2014—and more events being featured internationally, as well.
