Penny Restoole (Poolshark) Laurel Varner Clement J Gareau Deep down in a town named River Valley There stood this cabin next to the alley Where lived a lady named Penny Restoole Who was not schooled Cause she lived to play pool Penny loved her cue and she paid her dues She would go nowhere without her cue The principal he knew she didn't give a hoot But he'd also say that gal sure can shoot (chorus) Take your time Penny Restoole and sink em all Dont give em a chance to look at that next ball Look at the angles look at that eight ball Take your time Penny Restoole and sink em all Word soon spread about Penny and her cue Was it Penny or was it her cue Was it the cue that held some magic Or was it Penny who was terrific,nobody really knew A stranger came to town and smiled at Penny He stole her cue then bet all his money She beat that poolshark fair and square Now they say his shadow practices there (chorus) Ya,sight right down that cuestick Watch that corner pocket Dont scratch in the side Clean that table off girl (©(©SOCAN (BMI)))
