(Driscoll)

|
She was wild, as a raging river
|
She was free as an earth blown wind
|
Rock and roll queen, rock and roll queen
|
Wow, wow, rock, rock, rock, rock
|
|
Her Daddy was a stud-dealing gentleman, known as the Golden Hand
|
Mama was a good-timing lady, ran off with a travelling man
|
At fourteen she became a woman, Lord, Lord, Lord, how it made her weep
|
And the only family she ever knew was the people out on the street, that's right
|
|
They said, wow, she's a soul-singing woman
|
She gets high with a rock and roll band
|
Wow she can sing with the guitar strumming
|
People, I swear you're gonna believe it's a hundred-piece band
|
Hey now, now, now
|
|
She made it for a while
|
As a flower child
|
On the streets of the old San Fran
|
Then she made her pitch just a-singing the blues with a hard rocking acid band
|
Her name up in lights,
|
From the gutter to the heights
|
Lord, it must have been a dream
|
And the people came from miles and miles around
|
Just to watch that rock and roll queen
|
|
You know what they said - they said
|
They said, wow, she's a soul-singing woman
|
She gets high with a rock and roll band
|
She can sing with the guitar strumming
|
I swear you're gonna believe
|
Swear you're gonna believe it's a hundred-piece band
|
|
Can't you hear the beat of the music
|
Lord don't it sound like thunder
|
Jimmy's got his guitar
|
Louie's playing that trumpet
|
Otis Redding sings a sad, sad song
|
Now, now, now, now, now, now
|
I can hear the lady singing now
|
|
Wow, she's a soul-singing woman
|
She gets high with a rock and roll band
|
She can sing with the guitar strumming
|
I swear you're gonna believe
|
People, yes you're going to believe
|
I know that you're going to believe ...
|
|
Wow, she's a soul-singing woman
|
Wow, she's a soul-singing woman
|
Wow, she's a soul-singing woman
|
She gets high .......
