Queen of the Silver Dollar - Dave & Sugar

作词：Shel Silverstein

作曲：Shel Silverstein

She's the queen of the silver dollar

She rules this smoky kingdom

And her scepter is a wine glass

And her bar stool is her throne

Now the jesters they flock around her

Tryin' to win their favors

And see which one will take the queen

Of the silver dollar home

She arrives with all her splendor

Each night at nine o'clock

And her chariot is the crosstown

Bus that stops right down the block

Now 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

She rules this smoky kingdom

And her scepter is a wine glass

And her bar stool is her throne

Now the jesters they flock around her

Tryin' to win their favors

And see which one will take the queen

Of the silver dollar home

Now her royal dress is a satin

It's shabby and it's torn

Her royal jeweler rhinestones her

Shoes are scuffed and worn

On the many a road she's been down

And the places that she's seen

And they all look at her and say god save the queen

Now the queen of the silver dollar

Is not as naughty as she seems

She was once an ordinary girl with ordinary dreams

There's a man who found her

And brought her to this world

I'm the one who made the queen

Of a simple country girl

She's the queen of the silver dollar

She rules this smoky kingdom

And her scepter is a wine glass

And her bar stool is her throne

Now the jesters they flock around her

Tryin' to win their favors

And see which one will take the queen

Of the silver dollar home
