Ballad Of A Teenage Queen

Ballad of a Teenage Queen - Johnny Cash (约翰尼·卡什)

Lyrics by：Jack Henderson Clement

Composed by：Jack Henderson Clement

Dream on dream on teenage queen

Prettiest girl we've ever seen

There's a story in our town

Of the prettiest girl around

Golden hair and eyes of blue

How those eyes could flash at you

How those eyes could flash at you

Boys hung around her by the score

But she loved the boy next door

Who worked at the candy store

Dream on dream on teenage queen

Prettiest girl we've ever seen

She was tops in all they said

It never once went to her head

She had everything it seems

Not a care this teenage queen

Not a care this teenage queen

Other boys could offer more

But she loved the boy next door

Who worked at the candy store

Dream on dream on teenage queen

You should be a movie queen

He would marry her next spring

Saved his money bought a ring

Then one day a movie scout

Came to town to take her out

Came to town to take her out

Hollywood could offer more

So she left the boy next door

Working at the candy store

Dream on dream on teenage queen

See you on the movie screen

Very soon she was a star

Pretty house and shiny car

Swimming pool and a fence around

But she missed her old home town

But she missed her old home town

All the world was at her door

All except the boy next door

Who worked at the candy store

Dream on dream on teenage queen

Saddest girl we've ever seen

Then one day the teenage star

Sold her house and all her cars

Gave up all her wealth and fame

Left it all and caught a train

Left it all and caught a train

Do I have to tell you more

She came back to the boy next door

Who worked at the candy store

Now this story has some more

You'll hear it all at the candy store
