Ballad Of a Teenage Queen

The Everly Brothers

Compositor: Jack Clement

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 'round 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 queen of the senior prom
She could cook just like her mom
She had everything it seems
Pure delight, this teenage queen Pure delight, 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
Who worked at the candy store
Dream on, dream on teenage queen, see you on the movie screen
