Traffic Pearly Queen
I bought a sequined suit from a pearly queen And she could drink more wine than I'd ever seen She had some gypsies' blood flowing through her feet And when the time was right she said that I would meet My destiny I traveled round the world to find the sun I couldn't stop myself from having fun And then one day I met an Indian girl And she made me forget this troubled world We're living in I had a strange dream. In my hair I saw a pearly queen lying there And all around her feet flowers bloomed But they were made of silk and sequins two by two
