Takes
Lyrics
[verse]
Down in a candy store on Main Street
Worked a girl with the sweetest smile
A man from the city came to see her
Said he'd make her famous for a while
[verse]
He said come to Hollywood, little darlin'
I'll put your face on every screen
But she looked at the boy who loved her truly
And she stayed his teenage queen
[chorus]
She's a teenage queen, the prettiest thing you've seen
Turned down the bright lights for a love that's real
She's a teenage queen, right where she's always been
Behind the counter, sealin' up the deal
[verse]
The boy saved every dime from his paycheck
Bought a ring from the window down the block
Asked her right there by the soda fountain
And she said yes before the jukebox stopped
[chorus]
She's a teenage queen, the prettiest thing you've seen
Turned down the bright lights for a love that's real
She's a teenage queen, right where she's always been
Behind the counter, sealin' up the deal
[bridge]
Some folks chase the neon, chase the fame
Some folks find their fortune just the same
In a small town kitchen, in a small town heart
She found her whole world right there from the start
[chorus]
She's a teenage queen, the prettiest thing you've seen
Turned down the bright lights for a love that's real
She's a teenage queen, right where she's always been
Behind the counter, sealin' up the deal
