Lyrics
Rock ?n Roll Queen
Twenty Long Years She?s been banging those keys, Trying to make them proud
Twenty Long Years She?s had the same plan, To hear the roar of the crowd
chorus
She?s a Rock ?n Roll Queen, She?s Daddy?s Little Dream, And will he ever see her again
She?s picking up the pieces of her broken heart, And she?s moving on with her plans
verse 2
Momma died early, Daddy died on Christmas, It left her with a hole in her heart
She sits there staring at the piano, and man it?s ripping her apart
They would?ve been happy, They would?ve been proud, If they could see her now,
chorus
She?s a Rock ?n Roll Queen, And she?s the best thing, They?re never gonna see again
She?s picking up the pieces of her shattered heart, She?s moving on with her plan
bridge
But she keeps on playing, Louder every day
Cause she knows Heaven, Is a long, long ways away
verse
Rock ?n Roll Queen, Daddy?s Little Dream
She can almost hear him say, ?I?ll see you again one day?
chorus
You?re my Rock ?n Roll Queen, You?re the Best Thing, And I Know I?ll see you again
So pick up the pieces of your shattered dream, Move on now with your plan
You?re my Rock ?n Roll Queen, Daddy?s Little Dream
You?re my Rock ?n Roll Queen, Daddy?s Little Dream
bridge
But she keeps on playing, In case their radio?s on
She?s playing a little bit harder, As she sings Heaven?s number one song
verse
Rock ?n Roll Queen, Oh Daddy I love you So, I?ll See You Again, I KNOW
chorus
Rock ?n Roll Queen, I?m Daddy?s Little Dream, and I know I?ll see you again,
So I?m picking up the pieces of my shattered heart, And moving on Till Then
Rock ?n Roll Queen, Daddy?s Little Dream, Yeah Yeah Yeah Ya
