Queen Of The Silver Dollar

Lyrics
[Chorus] She's the queen of the Silver Dollar, she rules the smoky kingdom Her scepter is a wine glass, and the bar stool is her throne The jesters flock around her tryin' to win her favor To see which one will take the queen of the Silver Dollar home [Verse 1] She alights in all her splendor each night at nine o'clock Her chariot is a crosstown bus that stops right down the block Now the ol' piano minstrel plays a tune as she walks in And the queen of the Silver Dollar's home again [Chorus] She's the queen of the Silver Dollar, she rules the smoky kingdom Her scepter is a wine glass, and the bar stool is her throne The jesters flock around her tryin' to win her favor To see which one will take the queen of the Silver Dollar home [Verse 2] Now the royal dress is satin, it's shabby, and it's torn The royal jewels are rhinestones, and her shoes are scuffed and worn On the many roads she's been down, and the places that she's seen They all look at her and say, "God save the queen!" [Verse 3] Now the queen of the Silver Dollar is not as haughty as she seems She was once an ordinary girl with ordinary dreams There's a man that found her, and he brought her to this world He's the one who made a queen of a simple country girl [Chorus] She's the queen of the Silver Dollar, she rules the smoky kingdom Her scepter is a wine glass, and the bar stool is her throne The jesters flock around her tryin' to win her favor To see which one will take the queen of the Silver Dollar home [Chorus] She's the queen of the Silver Dollar, she rules the smoky kingdom Her scepter is a wine glass, and the bar stool is her throne The jesters flock around her tryin' to win her favor To see which one will take the queen of the Silver Dollar home [Chorus] She's the queen of the Silver Dollar, she rules the smoky kingdom Her scepter is a wine glass, and the bar stool is her throne The jesters flock around her tryin' to win her favor To see which one will take the queen of the Silver Dollar home
