[Verse 1] I roll in with the dawn Van full of black and gold Six cities in my bones And a story left untold Camera on my shoulder Bass in the back of my chest I make the room ignite Then I barely get to rest [Pre-Chorus] I count the empty plates I count the hotel walls I get the green room cheers Then I walk through quiet halls Every hand I shake Feels like it needs a sign I give them all my night And save no time for mine [Chorus] I want a queen on the road Ride with me tonight Queen on the road Keep my heart in sight I sell out the room Then I sleep alone again Queen on the road Be the missing part of me (Queen on the road) (Queen on the road) [Verse 2] I know the list is blessed I know the work is mine I get to chase the dream Across the county lines But dinner for one Gets cold in my hand And all my little messages Feel like sleight-of-hand They call when they need a lift They call when they need more I’m good at holding up But I’m tired to the core [Pre-Chorus] I laugh in flashing glass I wave in every town But when the venue’s dead The silence pulls me down I want a voice that stays When the crowd has gone A hand to hold the wheel When the last song’s done [Chorus] I want a queen on the road Ride with me tonight Queen on the road Keep my heart in sight I sell out the room Then I sleep alone again Queen on the road Be the missing part of me (Queen on the road) (Queen on the road) [Bridge] I’m grateful, I’m alive I built this dream from sparks I wear it like a crown But crowns can leave a mark So if you’re out there, love Somewhere past the noise Come find me in the miles Come be my only choice [Final Chorus] I want a queen on the road Ride with me tonight Queen on the road Keep my heart in sight I sell out the room Then I sleep alone again Queen on the road Be the missing part of me (Queen on the road) (Queen on the road) (Be the missing part of me)
