Testo Queen of the Silver Dollar - Emmylou Harris
Testo della canzone Queen of the Silver Dollar (Emmylou Harris), tratta dall'album Songs of the West
She arrives in all her splendor each night at nine o'clock
Her chariot is the crosstown bus that stops right down the block
Now the old piano minstrel plays her tune as she walks in
And the Queen of the Silver Dollar's home again
She's the Queen of the Silver Dollar
She rules this smokey kingdom
Scepter is a wine glass and a bar stool is her throne
Now the jesters flock around her tryin' to win her favors
To see which one will take the Queen of the Silver Dollar home
Now her royal dress is satin, it's shabby and it's torn
The royal jewels are rhinestones, the shoes are scuffed and worn
Of the many roads she's been down and the places that she's seen
Well, they all look at her and say, "God save the queen"
She's the Queen of the Silver Dollar
She rules this smokey kingdom
Scepter is a wine glass and a bar stool is her throne
Now the jesters flock around her tryin' to win her favors
To see which one will take the Queen of the Silver Dollar home
Now the Queen of the Silver Dollar is not as haughty as she seems
She was once an ordinary girl with ordinary dreams
But there's a man who found her and he brought her to this world
He's the one who made a queen of a simple country girl
Yes, I'm the Queen of the Silver Dollar
I rule this smokey kingdom
Scepter is a wine glass and a bar stool is my throne
Now the jesters flock around me tryin' to win my favors
To see which one will take the Queen of the Silver Dollar home
Yes I'm the Queen of the Silver Dollar
I rule this smokey kingdom
Scepter is a wine glass and a bar stool is my throne
Now the jesters flock around me tryin' to win my favors
To see which one will take the Queen of the Silver Dollar home
