Queen of Clark County
When I hit that crystal city
All I could do was cry
But prohibition never stopped the burlesque ladies
I don't know how to gamble
I wasted every dime
I was drunk but I would rather go get high
Had a joint sold by a woman with a hickey on her neck
Take yourself down to the rough and tumble side of town
The Hoover Dam can't stop her from rolling her own dice
And the Queen of Clark County's here tonight
And the Queen of Clark County's here tonight
This ol' town ain't what I thought
And I can't hang at Caesar's Palace
Gotta get out, explore the great Mojave
Razzmatazz and ostrich feathers
Were the last thing on my mind
But I tried to find her I was looking far and wide
It's hotter than the pits of hell, don't wanna step outside
But the Arizona Club was just a couple blocks away
The Scarlett-lipped lady who took over the Red Light
She's the Queen of Clark County tonight
Now I feel that crystal magic
Now she's breathing in me a new life
Now I see what I was missing
Her majesty, the Queen
Of Clark County
Clark County
Clark County
Clark County
Ain't no place for a poor boy like me
Every time I hit your crystal city
Oh you know it's gonna make a wreck outta me
Clark County
Clark County
Clark County
Clark County
The Queen of Clark County... She's here tonight
All I could do was cry
But prohibition never stopped the burlesque ladies
I don't know how to gamble
I wasted every dime
I was drunk but I would rather go get high
Had a joint sold by a woman with a hickey on her neck
Take yourself down to the rough and tumble side of town
The Hoover Dam can't stop her from rolling her own dice
And the Queen of Clark County's here tonight
And the Queen of Clark County's here tonight
This ol' town ain't what I thought
And I can't hang at Caesar's Palace
Gotta get out, explore the great Mojave
Razzmatazz and ostrich feathers
Were the last thing on my mind
But I tried to find her I was looking far and wide
It's hotter than the pits of hell, don't wanna step outside
But the Arizona Club was just a couple blocks away
The Scarlett-lipped lady who took over the Red Light
She's the Queen of Clark County tonight
Now I feel that crystal magic
Now she's breathing in me a new life
Now I see what I was missing
Her majesty, the Queen
Of Clark County
Clark County
Clark County
Clark County
Ain't no place for a poor boy like me
Every time I hit your crystal city
Oh you know it's gonna make a wreck outta me
Clark County
Clark County
Clark County
Clark County
The Queen of Clark County... She's here tonight
