She arrives in all her splendour each night at nine o'clock
Her chariot is a cross town bus that stops right down the block
Now the old piano minstrel plays a song as she walks in
And the queen of the silver dollar home again
She's the queen of the silver dollar
She rules this smokey kingdom
Her sceptre is a wine glass and a bar stool is her throne
Now the jesters flock around her try to win her favours
To 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
The royal jewels are rhinestones and 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 dollarshe she rules this smokey kingdom
Sceptre is a wine glass and a bar stool is her throne
And the jesters flock around her try to win her favours
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 is the one who made a queen of a simple country girl
She's the queen of the silver dollar have rules this smokey kingdom
Her sceptre is a wine glass and a bar-stool is her throne
Now the jesters flock around me try to win her favours
To see which one will take the queen of the silver dollar home
See which one will take the queen of the silver dollar home
