Hey mister, can you lend me a dollar?

I'm not like the rest of these bums

I just need it to tide me over till the mayor comes
He promised me that he'd give me my house back

We just got off of the phone

Don't walk away, I can tell your future

Don't walk away, don't you know you're talking to

When I was a girl, I met the Prince of Wales
On a yacht in New York harbour

He told me I was pretty and I danced with him, he was a gentleman
He kissed my hand and gave me a dollar

Don't walk away, don't you know you're talking to

B7 E7
I like your lavender limousine
F
I have a car just like that
B7 E7
My driver cracked it up last night
F
I think he drinks, you know
But I just can't let him go
Em
He'd drive through a wall of fire for me
Dm
Sometimes he treats me mean
C
He forgets that I'm the queen
F
Yeah, I sure like that limousine, mister
[Pre-Chorus]

I can see your future, mister, I can see it in your face

I'll be riding in that limo, you'll be standing in my place
Eb F Ab
You know, it's different in the moonlight
Bb C
With the queen of the night
