about

This song was inspired by the women of country music--strong, beautiful, and resilient.

lyrics

She’s queen of the county, her hand’s on the wheel.
The crowd at her feet knows she feels what they feel.
Her story’s an old one, but newer than morning;
When she sings, she’s queen of the county.
Oh, so beautiful.
Oh, so strong.
Her story’s an old one, but newer than morning;
When she sings, she’s queen of the county.
Her mama and daddy were singers by trade
They took her along for the ride.
She’d sing after hours, dragged from her bed
They paid her in kisses and pats on the head.
She’s queen of the county, her hand’s on the wheel.
The crowd at her feet knows she feels what they feel.
Her story’s an old one, but newer than morning;
When she sings, she’s queen of the county.
Her mama left home and never returned;
Her daddy, he turned to the bottle.
So she pulls herself up by her bootstraps each night
And pours out her sorrows in song.
She’s queen of the county, a bright shining star.
Love won’t let her go—it’s brought her this far.
In her red cowboy boots and her voice full of truth;
When she sings, she’s queen of the county.
Oh, so beautiful.
Oh, so strong.
In her red cowboy boots and her voice full of truth;
When she sings, she’s queen of the county.
Her story’s an old one, but newer than morning;
When she sings, she’s queen of the county.
