Pearly Queen lyrics
by Traffic



I bought a sequined suit from a pearly queenAnd she could drink more wine than I'd ever seenShe had some gypsies' blood flowing through her feetAnd when the time was right she said that I would meetMy destinyI traveled round the world to find the sunI couldn't stop myself from having funAnd then one day I met an Indian girlAnd she made me forget this troubled worldWe're living inI had a strange dream. In my hairI saw a pearly queen lying thereAnd all around her feet flowers bloomedBut they were made of silk and sequins two by two
