This song takes a bit of a lighter tone than other Alice in Chains works. It was specially performed in Dallas as it is a mockery of Southern thoughts about homosexuality and gender roles. It mocks homophobia and the stigmas and stereotypes surrounding the gay community.
[Intro: Spoken]
"All right, seeing how we...
Seeing how we're in Dallas
We got a special treat for you guys
This is a little country tune
That we wrote
You'll dig it"
[Verse 1]
My daddy was a trucker
Left home when I was three
He fell for some dude in Dallas
Then it was Mom and me
She always wanted a daughter
Well, look at what she got
Hit me, beat me; a faggot I ain't
But a real man, they say I'm not
[Chorus]
I'm the queen, queen of the rodeo
Queen, queen of the rodeo
So, cowboy, if you're lookin for lovin'
I ain't no queer; go fuck a steer
[Post-Chorus]
"Yeah, I think there might be one right over there..."
[Verse 2]
I drink too much; I smoke too much
I'm a human waste
I buy a lot of cheap alcohol
But I'll tell ya, honey, I really hate the taste
I dressed in drag; they call me a fag
But, boy, I really don't care
'Cause last night, I met your mother, fucker
And I hope ya like to share, 'cause she did
[Chorus]
I'm the queen, queen of the rodeo
Queen, queen of the rodeo
So, cowboy, if you're lookin' to fight
I ain't no wimp; I scratch and bite
[Post-Chorus]
"And I'm gonna kick your ass, too..."
[Refrain]
Queen, queen of the rodeo
[Guitar Solo]
Fuck you!
[Outro]
Queen, queen of the rodeo
Queen, queen of the rodeo
