Queen Of The Silver Dollar

She arrives in all her splendor

Every night at nine o'clock

And her chariot is the crosstown bus

That stops right down the block

Then the old piano minstrel

Plays her song as she walks in

And the Queen of the Silver Dollar's home again

She's the Queen of the Silver Dollar

And she rules this smoky kingdom

And her scepter is a wine glass

And this bar stool is her throne

And the jesters flock around her

And fight to win her favors

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 sparklin' jewels are rhinestones

And her shoes are scuffed and worn

From the many roads she's traveled

And the wondrous sites she's seen

And I watch her and I pray

God save the Queen

The Queen of the Silver Dollar's

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 into this world

Yes, I'm the man who made a Queen

Of a simple country girl

Now she's the Queen of the Silver Dollar

And she rules this smoky kingdom

And her scepter is a wine glass

And this bar stool is her throne

And the jesters flock around her

And fight to win her favors

And see which one will take the Queen

Of the Silver Dollar home
