Queen of the night


Hey mister can you lend me a dollar

I'm not like the rest of these bums

I just need it to tide me over

Till the mayor comes

He promised me that he'd give me my house back

We just got off of the phone

Don't walk away I can tell your future

Don't walk away, don't you know you're talking to

The queen, the queen of the night

I was the queen, the queen of the night

Everybody knew my name, everybody knew my face

Everybody treated me like I owned the place

I was the mistress of the moonlight

The queen of the night

When I was a girl I met the Prince of Wales

On a yacht in New York harbor

He told me I was pretty and I danced with him

He was a gentleman

He kissed my hand and gave me a dollar

Mister can you make it two

Hey don't walk away I can tell your future

Don't walk away, don't you know you're talking to |

The queen, the queen of the night

I was the queen, the queen of the night

Everybody knew my name, everybody knew my face

Everybody treated me like I owned the place

I was the mistress of the moonlight

The queen of the night

I like your lavender limousine

I have a car just like that

My driver cracked it up last night

I think he drinks you know

But I just can't let him go

He'd drive through a wall of fire for me

Sometimes he treats me mean

He forgets that I'm the queen

I sure like that limousine mister

Don't walk away I can tell your future

Don't walk away, don't you know your talking to

The queen, the queen of the night

I was the queen, the queen of the night

I can see your future mister

I can see it in your face

I'll be riding in that limo

You'll be standing in my place

You know it's different in the moonlight

I was the queen of the night

You know it's different in the moonlight

I was the queen of the night

You know it's different in the moonlight

I was the queen of the night

You know it's different in the moonlight

I was the queen of the night

You know it's different in the moonlight

I was the queen of the night

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
