She's the queen of the silver dollar,
And she rules this smokey kingdom.
And her scepter is a wine glass,
And the bar stool is her throne.
And the jesters, they flock around her,
And fight to win her favors
And see which one will take the queen of the silver dollar home.
First Verse
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,
She's home again.
She's the queen of the silver dollar,
And she rules this smokey kingdom.
And her scepter is a wine glass,
And the 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.
Second Verse
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.
She's the queen of the silver dollar,
And she rules this smokey kingdom.
And her scepter is a wine glass,
And the 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.
Third Verse
Now she's the queen of the silver dollar,
And she rules this smokey kingdom.
And her scepter is a wine glass,
And the 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.
Outro
She's the queen of the silver dollar,
And she rules this smokey kingdom.
And her scepter is a wine glass,
And the bar stool is her throne.
And the jesters, they flock around her,
And fight to win her favors
And see which one will take the queen of the silver dollar home.
