Lyrics

THE QUEEN

Lost my way somewhere in Traill County

On a winding road in barren fields of snow.

I broke down soon as I heard that you were leavin’.

The gossips at the laundromat they told me so.

Do you see

The hope you brought to me?



Tried my best and yet I never could impress you.

We climbed the hills and gathered flowers in sunny June.

And I guess that all those memories are fleeting

When Romeo can feed you with a shiny silver spoon.

You say he

Can give you what you need.



But whatcha gonna do when he makes you cry?

And whatcha gonna do when the well runs dry?

And whatcha gonna do with you shattered dream?

When he’s out lookin’ for another queen?



I’ll be here, somewhere in Traill County.

Walkin’ on the straightest road that I can find.

Cuz I know that soon the summer rains are comin’

And twilight dancin’ on the hills will ease my haggard mind.

Choked and sore

I’ve walked this way before.



But whatcha gonna do when he makes you cry?

And whatcha gonna do when the well runs dry?

And whatcha gonna do with you shattered dream?

When he’s out lookin’ for another queen?



But whatcha gonna do when he makes you cry?

And whatcha gonna do when the well runs dry?

And whatcha gonna do with you shattered dream?

When he’s out lookin’ for another queen?
