Pearly Queen Lyrics

Pearly Queen lyrics

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
