[Intro]
One, two, three
Are you gonna take me home tonight?
Oh, down beside that red firelight?
Are you gonna let it all hang out?
Fat bottomed girls
You make the rockin' world go 'round

[Verse 1]
I was just a skinny lad
Never knew no good from bad
But I knew life before
I left my nursery
Left alone with big fat Fanny
She was such a naughty nanny
Hey, big woman
You done made a bad boy of me
Alright!

[Verse 2]
I've been singing with my band
Cross the water, cross the land
I've seen every blue eyed
Floozy on the way
But their beauty and their style
Went kinda smooth after a while
Take me to them naughty ladies every time

[Chorus]
Oh, won't you take me home tonight
Oh, down beside that red firelight?
Oh, you gonna 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
Alright!

[Verse 3]
I've got mortgages and homes
He's got stiffness in his bones
Ain't no beauty queens
In this locality, well, actually
Oh, but I still get my pleasure
I still got my greatest treasure
Hey, big woman
You done made a bad boy of me
Alright!

[Chorus]
(Oh, I know) Are you gonna
Take me home tonight? Yeah
Oh, down beside that red firelight? Sing it!
Are you gonna let it all hang out?
Fat bottomed girls
You make the rockin' world go 'round
Fat bottomed girls
You make the rockin' world go 'round
Now get on your bikes and ride!

[Outro]
Fat bottomed girls
Yeah, alright
Fat bottomed girls
Ooh, whoa, yeah (Fat bottomed girls)
Alright!
Fat bottomed girls
Ooh, hey, yeah, oh, yeah
Come on! Hey!
Alright

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.
