[Verse] Well, Billy Joe woke up with a thought in his mind, Grabbed his razor and some courage he could find, He said, "Today’s the day, I'm takin' a chance," Gonna shave those boys and head to the lanes for a dance. [Verse 2] He looked in the mirror, took a deep breath, With a careful hand, he faced his brave quest, Smooth as the river runnin' through our town, He felt brand new, not a hair could be found. [Chorus] Shaved and strikin', he's feelin' bold, Rollin' those frames like he's strikin' gold, Never thought a razor would change his fate, But he's smooth as silk and bowling great. [Verse 3] The bowling alley lights seemed to shine so bright, As Billy Joe walked in with a swagger in sight, His buddies laughed and said, "You're lookin' slick!" He just grinned wide and lined up the first thick brick. [Verse 4] Pins flew left and right, an easy strike, Turns out a smooth swing has got some bite, The whole crowd cheered, "Billy Joe's on fire!" He's chalkin’ it up to his new silk attire. [Chorus] Shaved and strikin', he's feelin' bold, Rollin' those frames like he's strikin' gold, Never thought a razor would change his fate, But he's smooth as silk and bowling great.
