| The darkness was creeping away
|
| It fled from the sun, as it rose upon the view
|
| In this morning light, by the riverside
|
| In the ghetto, she was born
|
| It’s labour lost on the wildside
|
| 'Cause they’re in dire need
|
| From the cradle to the grave
|
| So the road was long, but her spirit strong
|
| And she fought her way to fame
|
| She would never give in, and never lay down
|
| She became the talk of every town
|
| She’s a queen, a revelation
|
| (She's a queen, a revelation)
|
| Winner in a tug o’war
|
| (She's a winner in a tug o’war)
|
| She got fortune, she got fame
|
| Neon lights calling her name
|
| She isn’t hard up anymore
|
| She’s a queen in magic glory
|
| (She's a queen in magic glory)
|
| There’s no legend to compare
|
| (And there is no legend to compare)
|
| She got fortune, she got fame
|
| Neon lights calling her name
|
| For many years to come
|
| She got up and rose to the crisis
|
| No, she didn’t care, and she never looked behind
|
| So the road was long, and her spirit strong
|
| And she fought her way to fame
|
| She would never give in, and never lay down
|
| She became the talk of every town
|
| She’s a queen, a revelation
|
| (She's a queen, a revelation)
|
| Winner in a tug o’war
|
| (She's a winner in a tug o’war)
|
| She got fortune, she got fame
|
| Neon lights calling her name
|
| She isn’t hard up anymore
|
| She’s a queen in magic glory
|
| (She's a queen in magic glory)
|
| There’s no legend to compare
|
| (And there is no legend to compare)
|
| She got fortune, she got fame
|
| Neon lights calling her name
|
| For many years to come
|
| She got fortune, she got fame
|
| Neon lights calling her name
|
| For many years to come |
