Dr Hook - Queen Of The Silver Dollar

[ThorNorwegian]

She was once an ordinary girl with ordinary dreams

But there's a man who found her

And he brought her to this world

He's the one who made a queen of a simple country girl :))

[Traceeztube]

I love these guys!!! Actually had my pic taken with Dennis years ago...Wish I had been braver lol, Some of my friends got a kiss but I was afraid to ask!

[utopianjewel]

People seriously don't know what this song is about? Oh wait.. no they wouldn't because it's not about screwing, popping caps and drugs lol

[2008alberta]

good fn grief...."silver dollar" was the name of the bar..an everyday bar for every day hard working man an woman out there...she was so comfortably in that environment it became "her" place to rule...an ordinary country girl, (as the lyrics note) who had many guys want to take her home but, the singer, made her, his queen

[Battlestrike57]

Those 4 guys that keep on disliking ths music Im sure they are headbanger queers from the bronxs I love your version and music Great!!!!!!!!!1

[sineadc1973]

[cuteoldguy]

@davehutchison67 ...You are right .it's not about old "Queen's" who were close to you .

....It's about "THE QUEEN of THE SILVER DOLLAR ".A place way above your class .

....She's not a whore or a stripper .Listen to the word's

....She is one of many simple country girl's dragged into hell ,by asshole's just like you .

[davehutchinson67]

This is not about old queens...it's about strippers...I worked in a classic strip club for over 10 years..not one of those new high dollar rip ya running joints...it was a bit of a dive..but damn..we had some fun. And you know..we had some queens of the silver dollar there...as I remember...lol...good times. and sad times too.

[Imbrallah]

I LOVE these guys! They are timeless

[cuteoldguy]

....I really like this ,i'm old and when i'm ready I hit the go thingy

....Dr Hook your go is not like my go ,I fell asleep waiting .

....Then "BANG" ...Scared the hell out of me ,I could have done myself a mischief .

....Next time I will lay down before I hit the thingy .

[loreemoore]

Takes me back to the good old days when my kids were still little and my family still around. Dr, Hook ROCKS!!!

[TheCrdawson]

I never heard of Dr. Hook until a few hours ago when my aunt told me about a concert she went to of thiers in New Orleans. I'm very glad to say that I came here to listen to them myself, I've yet to be disappointed by what I have heard.

[tiannamama1]

@MsGabbySul don't remember Dr. Hook have a song called darlin, but Frankie Miller have one.

[mildredseay]

this is a great cross-over song, but I think only Dr.Hook does it justice

[TheOnylDavid]

[Piggysmaatgmail]

i love this tune!

[BBQFanNo1]

Had the 45 record. It was the B-side of Cover Of Rolling Stone.

[thewillismon]

@BBQFanNo1 This is one of those instances where the B-side is better than the A-side. In my opinion

[muriel29north]

[dragonfly74j]

@muriel29north me and u and millions of others i suppose. my whole family, my husband and 8 kids live on this stuff.

[SapphireMoonRaven66]

I have always loved this song. Brings back memories thanks for this.

[BrownMaterial]

This song has been done to death by many. But this best version of them all....Hands down....And I don't care what anyone says.

[LesP56]

Nice take on this song. Good show. Almost makes it totally original without losing the flavor of the other versions.

[dercarsus]

Love it, an old old favourite of mine., takes me way way back.....
