I'd travel the road and walk many a mile To get to the faire, I would use all my gile I'd cross o'er the swamps and step on crocodiles For a chance just to sing for the queen
I'd run through the forest and wrestle with bears I'd pass over brambles and troublesome snares I promise at night I will say all my prayers For a chance just to sing for the queen
And I'll sing her a song that I hope she'll adore A song or a poem and a dance 'cross the floor And I pray when I've finished, that she'll give me just one more chance to sing for the queen (x2)
I'd tangle with guards just to get through the gate I'd cut through the line so I wouldn't be late Just to get close, I would gamble with fate For a chance just to sing for the queen
I'd cross raging rivers in a old, wooden raft I'd tell funny jokes that make court jesters laugh And noone would know I'm just 10 and a half For a chance just to sing for the queen
And I'll sing her a song that I hope she'll adore A song or a poem and a dance 'cross the floor And I pray when I've finished, that she'll give me just one more chance to sing for the queen
One more chance to sing for the queen
And she shall bring the birds in spring And dance among the flowers In summer's heat her kiss is sweet she sings from leafy bowers She cuts the grain and harvest the corn When fruits of fall surround her When days grow old in Winter's cold she draws her cloak around her.
