Gonna Ball is an album by the Stray Cats from 1981. It was their second album and, like the previous album, it was not released in the USA for the time being. Five songs from this album were to appear on their US debut Built for Speed a year later .

Gonna Ball was nowhere near as successful as the debut album Stray Cats and received some negative reviews from the music press. This album was recorded in the Caribbean, where Dave Edmunds , the producer of the first album, was replaced by Hein Hoven . In addition, the Stray Cats acted as co-producers on some of the songs.
