The Homecoming Queen
They said she was the
Prettiest girl in school
It was the graduating class of '72
And the university hired me to sing
And there I met the homecoming queen
When I first saw her, something said inside
"Boy, this girl is bound to be your wife"
She was beautiful and pretty as could be
And I swore I'd make her my homecoming queen
'Cause the homecoming queen is a friend
And a lover and a lady
She's the girl of my dreams and the
Mother of my two little babies
The homеcoming queen took away all
The loneliness and doubt
Thе homecoming queen showed me what
Coming home is all about
Have you ever had those days
When nothin' goes your way
And you get down? You think about goin' out
Gettin' drunk tearin' up the town
But my little girl meets me at the door
And says daddy's home to play
And the queen takes me in her arms
And I forget about my rough and rowdy ways
'Cause the homecoming queen is a friend
And a lover and a lady
She's the girl of my dreams and the
Mother of my two little babies
The homecoming queen took away all
The loneliness and doubt
The homecoming queen showed me what
Coming home is all about
Now I've had my flings and a
Man will do these things there's no doubt
But when the party's over you can find me
Back with mama at the house
And my head'll be a-poundin'
And she'll be kind of down in the mouth
God knows that I love her
'Cause the king ain't much
Without the queen around
'Cause the homecoming queen is a friend
And a lover and a lady
She's the girl of my dreams and the
Mother of my two little babies
The homecoming queen took away all
The loneliness and doubt
The homecoming queen showed me what
Coming home is all about
Yes, the homecoming queen showed me what
Coming home was all about
