lyrics

Put down your fancy things
Does not effect what you bring
Dump them down in that alleyway
Soulful vision made you sing
Rhythm comes can’t even sleep at night
Something guiding young child’s flight
Music’s needle slowly sinkin’ in
Tried to block it off, time and time again


Chorus
You made no sense to me
Something grinding down inside
Left the room in such a mess
Tall black lady, short red dress

My Detroit Queen
That girl so fine
My Detroit Queen


So get on down in your dirty cradle
Dig that baby can you handle?
And slippin on you subtleties
Up and down them highway streets
All the reason I tried to find it
Church bell came reminded
All the reason that you had to
Trouble came and went
And then I came in you


Chorus
