Queen For a Day Bobby "Blue" Bland

Don't leave and cry
Don't cry when you're gone
Lord, you just lost your kingdom
And you're a queen no more

So don't cry tomorrow, when you hear me say
Don't cry tomorrow when you hear me say
"Step down off of that throne, woman
Because you are only a queen for a day"

From mink to rabbit, ain't it a shame
It's you own fault, baby
Lord, you only have yourself to blame

So don't cry tomorrow
Don't cry tomorrow when you hear me say
"Well, I want you to tip toe down off of that throne, baby
Because you're only a queen for a day"

I said you broke my heart
By the things you said
I took you from rags to riches
Ahw, it went to your pretty little head

So don't cry tomorrow
Don't cry tomorrow, when you hear me say
"Lord, I want you to step down off of that throne, baby
Because you were only queen for a day"
