"Snookeroo" is a song written by Elton John and Bernie Taupin and released by Ringo Starr on his 1974 album Goodnight Vienna.

The song, which concerns a happy-go-lucky lout from northern England, was written about Starr himself.^{[1][failed verification]} Bernie Taupin backs this up by calling it "a simple biographical thing".^{[2][failed verification]} Elton John recalled, "Bernie wrote really simple lyrics, very Ringo type lyrics and I tried to write a simple sort of melody to it".^[2] Elton John also plays piano on the track and provides the count-off.

The title refers to the billiards game snooker. Charting as a tag-along with "No No Song" in the US, it reached number three on the Billboard Hot 100. On the Cash Box chart, which listed single sides separately, it "bubbled under" at number 105.^[3]

The UK version of the single was released on 21 February 1975 with "Oo-Wee" on the B-side,^{[nb 1]};^[4] both tracks were taken from the album Goodnight Vienna.
