The Queen of Country

All the way through Kentucky, across Tennessee
I'd been travelling so long to see the queen of country
Just to hear her sweet voice, see her face
Watch her moving with grace
Join in with her love songs
Thunder and lightning, it poured down with rain
On her way she boarded a plane, the queen of country
Thousands of fans singing madly
To welcome her gladly
Patiently waiting
Then they held their breaths
The announcer could not keep from crying
As he mumbled: our queen is now dying
When the plane crashed, no one survived
And they cry, feeling so sad and so lonely
Wonder why Suzie, the one and the only
Oh, they pray and they hope:
In a heavenly choir
She'll sing songs of love
And they will be able
To hear from above
Looks full of sadness and full of dismay
They played the last record she made
The queen of country
Thousands of fans singing sadly
Missing her badly
Hopelessly waiting
Then they held their breaths
The announcer could not keep from crying
As he mumbled: our queen is dying
When the plane crashed, no one survived
