THERE AIN'T NO QUEEN (IN MY KINGSIZE BED)
(Bobby Borchers)
Mickey Gilley - 1975
I've had a lot o' good women
The best one, she just left
The satin sheets we made love between
I just can't forget
We made the best of the bad things
For so very long
But this mornin' when I woke up
That lady was gone
Now there ain't no queen
In my kingsize bed
I'm layin' here on this six-by-six
A kingsize lovenest
She may not be the best in the world
She's the best I've ever had
And nevertheless there ain't no queen
In my kingsize bed
(Piano solo)
Well I remember a house in the country
Set on a four acre plot
There's a bedroom full of memories
That I ain't forgot
And ev'ry day at sundown
When I get the urge to go home
That's about the time that it dawns on me
Well, that the lady's gone
Now there ain't no queen
In my kingsize bed
I'm layin' here on this six-by-six
A kingsize lovenest
She may not be the best in the world
She's the best I've ever had
And nevertheless there ain't no queen
In my kingsize bed
Nevertheless there ain't no queen
In my kingsize bed
