Lyrics

America’s Queen

You should have seen her at the rodeo
With her six guns stole the show
The sunset made her pose complete

And all the cowboys they grabbed their lariats, whooped and cheered
Seeing the dream appear
The crowd roared when she made her pony rear

And all the cowboys watched her ride with style
The stars and stripes flying proud
She must have dreamed as a child she’d be

America’s queen

She rode around like a movie star
Hair flying, spurs on fire
And when she turned she looked straight at me and stopped and curtsied

The crowd went belly up almost dieing
Who’s this gal from the country side?
I can’t describe what she’s done to me
I might be dreaming,

And all at once she was gone
The lights dimmed, the stars were falling
And as I left a smile came over me

For America’s queen

Driving back on this country road
Thinking about some time ago
I closed my eyes, and I can clearly see

My little girl bouncing on my knee
Her brand new boots, faded jeans, Daddy
I’ll make you proud of me

My little girl bouncing on my knee
Her brand new boots and faded jeans, Daddy
I’ll make you proud of me

When I’m America’s queen
