|
She's the queen of the Silver Dollar, and she rules this smokey kingdom |
|
And her sceptre is a wine glass and a bar-stool is her throne |
|
And the jesters, they flock around her, and they fight to win her favours |
|
And see which one will take the queen of the Silver Dollar home |
|
She arrives in all her splendour every night at nine o'clock |
|
And her chariot is a cross-town bus that stops right down the block |
|
The ol' piano minstrel plays a song as she walks in |
|
And the queen of the Silver Dollar, she's home again |
|
She's the queen of the Silver Dollar, and she rules this smokey kingdom |
|
And her sceptre is a wine glass and a bar-stool is her throne |
|
And the jesters flock around her, and fight to win her favours |
|
And see which one will take the queen of the Silver Dollar home |
|
Her royal gown is a satin dress, that's stained and slightly torn |
|
And her sparkling jewels are rhinestones, and her shoes are scuffed and worn |
|
From the many roads she's travelled and the wonderous sights she's seen |
|
And I watch her and I pray God save the queen |
|
She's the queen of the Silver Dollar, and she rules this smokey kingdom |
|
And her sceptre is a wine glass and a bar-stool is her throne |
|
And the jesters flock around her, and fight to win her favours |
|
And see which one will take the queen of the Silver Dollar home |
|
The queen of the Silver Dollar is not as haughty as she seems |
|
She was once an ordinary girl with ordinary dreams |
|
But I found her and I won her, and I brought her to this world |
|
Yes I'm the man who made a queen of a simple country girl |
|
She's the queen of the Silver Dollar, and she rules this smokey kingdom |
|
And her sceptre is a wine glass and a bar-stool is her throne |
|
And the jesters flock around her, and fight to win her favours |
|
And see which one will take the queen of the Silver Dollar home |
|
She's the queen of the Silver Dollar, and she rules this smokey kingdom |
