A long time ago I saw you there

Sitting in a corner chair

I was looking for a place to stay

You were only hanging out and hanging around

I didn't see what I was looking for

I guess I never really knew

I was looking for a private eye

You never knew what I was talking about

Queenie queenie queenie

Won't you come along and make a home with me

Queenie queenie queenie

We could settle down and make some history

Queenie queenie queenie

We could never stop it if we wanted to

Queenie queenie queenie

We could be so happy with a family

The next time I saw you was the summertime

Im just a little older now

Things seemed to get a little better then

You went out and got a ticket taking you home

It really was a shame I didn't follow you

It would have saved a lot of time

I had to come around eventually

And ask you if you want to maybe marry me

Queenie queenie queenie

Won't you come along and make a home with me

Queenie queenie queenie

We could settle down and make some history

Queenie queenie queenie

We could never stop it if we wanted to

Queenie queenie queenie

We could be so happy with a family

Queenie queenie queenie

Won't you come along and make a home with me

Queenie queenie queenie

We could settle down and make some history

Queenie queenie queenie

We could never stop it if we wanted to

Queenie queenie queenie

We could be so happy with a family

Queenie queenie queenie

Won't you come along and make a home with me

Queenie queenie queenie

We could settle down and make some history
