Her hair is like honey, eyes sparkle like the rain
She wears a holy crown made of motorcycle chain
She's a wild magnolia, all of Mississippi knows

She beats the Bells of Natchez, She's the Queen of Tupelo

Queen of Tupelo, She's the Queen of Tupelo

She lives up in a tower down the Old Saltillo Road

When she was just a princess and her daddy was the king

All his drinkin' and his cheatin' made her momma mean
Now she's as hard as diamonds, she's as cold as snow
There ain't no talkin' to her, she's the Queen of Tupelo


Queen of Tupelo, She's the Queen of Tupelo
She lives up in a tower down the Old Saltillo Road


If you ever see her she'll cast her spell on you
And if you try to hold her, she'll break your heart in two

They can take your land and cotton, all of Mississippi knows
They'll never take my memories of the Queen of Tupelo


She's the Queen of Tupelo, Queen of Tupelo
She lives up in a tower down the Old Saltillo Road


She's the Queen of Tupelo, Queen of Tupelo
She lives up in a tower down the Old Saltillo Road
