Eilen Jewell - Queen Of The Minor Key Lyrics
The day I was born a gypsy looked at me
She told my mama she could easily see
Just how bright my future would be
For I was gonna be royalty
No crown will sit on her poor head
A barstool will be her throne she said
Instead of riches and finery
She’ll have a wealth of sad songs and whiskey
She’ll be the queen, the queen, the queen,
The queen of the minor key
And so you see I play the part
Before empty glasses and broken hearts
You’re in the right court if blue’s what you need
But if it’s sunshine you’re after don’t bother me
I’m the queen, the queen, the queen,
The queen of the minor key
I’m the queen of lonely tunes,
The queen of the high shelf booze
The queen of melancholy
Queen of the minor key
