Queen Corn
I got a call from a railroad gal, she'd been out in the sun
Wanted hooch and a bushel, of corn, and I just had me some
Made a trade for a heap of fun, she got paid in kind
I made it safe across them tracks, and she found the end of the line
Queen corn, standin' tall, out in Ioway
Queen corn, standin' tall
She got a bushel and that ain't all, she got a bushel and that ain't all
Met her sis on a country road, she had a bag of seed
Said this grow tall in Iowa, this is what you need
So I grew it up and I brewed it up, gave her all the squeeze
She drank it all then took a fall said bury me if you please
Queen corn, standin' tall, out in Ioway
Queen corn, standin' tall
We squeeze corn till we hit that wall, squeeze that corn till you hit that wall
Sister three she came to me, heard I had some shine
She dropped dead of a heart attack, before I got online
Her sister called said what the hell, you killed off all my kin
Said keep that cob in your pants, and your corn crop in the bin
And the corn crop in the bin
Queen corn standin' tall, out in Ioway, out in Ioway
So I dug dirt and searched my soul, now I got to say
You best step lightly on that land, out in Ioway
I don't cook corn by the tracks no more, I feel bad every day
Two of them sisters in the ground but ones still in the hay
Queen corn, number one, all she had was too much fun
Queen corn, number two, squeezed that corn turned it blue
Queen corn, number three, she didn't have no luck with me
Queen corn, standin tall, out in Ioway
Wanted hooch and a bushel, of corn, and I just had me some
Made a trade for a heap of fun, she got paid in kind
I made it safe across them tracks, and she found the end of the line
Queen corn, standin' tall, out in Ioway
Queen corn, standin' tall
She got a bushel and that ain't all, she got a bushel and that ain't all
Met her sis on a country road, she had a bag of seed
Said this grow tall in Iowa, this is what you need
So I grew it up and I brewed it up, gave her all the squeeze
She drank it all then took a fall said bury me if you please
Queen corn, standin' tall, out in Ioway
Queen corn, standin' tall
We squeeze corn till we hit that wall, squeeze that corn till you hit that wall
Sister three she came to me, heard I had some shine
She dropped dead of a heart attack, before I got online
Her sister called said what the hell, you killed off all my kin
Said keep that cob in your pants, and your corn crop in the bin
And the corn crop in the bin
Queen corn standin' tall, out in Ioway, out in Ioway
So I dug dirt and searched my soul, now I got to say
You best step lightly on that land, out in Ioway
I don't cook corn by the tracks no more, I feel bad every day
Two of them sisters in the ground but ones still in the hay
Queen corn, number one, all she had was too much fun
Queen corn, number two, squeezed that corn turned it blue
Queen corn, number three, she didn't have no luck with me
Queen corn, standin tall, out in Ioway
