Steve Earle, Chris Hillman - High Fashion Queen lyrics

There's a place every one of us can go to
Maybe you have been there once or twice
Where all your friends just look
At you and whisper
And they want to give you nothing but advice

When you walk in
They all know what you're after
The higher that you get the more they'll see
In a dark room filled with music, wine
And laughter
Your eyes keep searching for her constantly

Is it that one in the corner
With her eyes filled with tears?
Or is she the one who's having
Fun drinking too much beer?
Every night it's the same sad old procedure
The doorman winks at you on your way out
'Cause deep inside
He knows just what you're after
And he's got something you can't live without

There's nothing new that can
Be said about dirt
And there's nothing left inside your heart
But the same old hurt
Of an old love's fancy life that's
Left you stranded in a dream
Ain't you glad you're a high fashion queen?
Ain't you glad you're a high fashion queen?
Ain't you glad you're a high fashion queen?
