lyrics

She walks into the bar
And lays her cards on the table
Cowboys look her up and down
They place their bets — they’re willing they’re able
But she don’t come to take the pot
And she don’t come to fight
She’s the Queen of the Aces
You ain’t takin’ her home tonight

The dealer shuffles up the cards
She grabs her drink and sips
Cowgirls look her up and down
They smile they wink they lick their lips
But she don’t need to stack the deck
No need to act so tough
She’s the Queen of the Aces
You ain’t divin’ in her muff

She’s the Queen of Aces
You best not double-down
Be careful how you play your hand
And if you think she’s bluffin’
Then you better think again ‘cause
You just don’t understand

And when the game comes to an end
The people gather round
Pour a drink and raise a glass
Happy with new friends they found
She never has to raise the stakes
She never has to fold
She’s the Queen of the Aces
Never gonna fit into your mold

Yeah she never has to check the cards
Never place a bet
She’s the Queen of the Aces
And you ain’t seen nothin’ yet

Polythene Pam San Francisco, California

Polythene Pam are an upbeat, whimsical, queer Americana girl band. Take the quirky nerdery of They Might Be Giants, the old school country twang of Dolly Parton and Johnny Cash, and the rock attitude of the Violent Femmes. Shake well, add a sardonic sense of humor, and you’ve got Polythene Pam. ... more
