Dropkick Murphys - Queen Of Suffolk County

"Boston police have apprehended a woman tonight
In connection with a stabbing outside a Chatham St bar
She'll be arraigned at Suffolk Country courthouse in the morning"

She had hair like a skyscraper
And an even bigger attitude
Some called her precious, others rude
She liked the sketchy guys
Telling tales, telling lies
Yeah, Jameson and ginger were her bounty

She was the toast of the town
And when she came around, they said

Well, if it ain't the queen of Suffolk County
Here comes the queen of Suffolk County
You best stay out of her way
Yeah, you know she's here to stay
'Cause she's the queen of Suffolk County

She had style, she had grace
She had a knife and she had mace
Always causing trouble for the boys at Shawn's
She'd bring ya to your knees
She did just as she pleased
Yeah, cocaine and violence were her bounty

She was the toast of the town
And when she came around, they said

Well, if it ain't the queen of Suffolk County
Here comes the queen of Suffolk County
Yeah, best stay out of her way
She don't joke and she don't play
'Cause she's the queen of Suffolk County

She's tough like a tiger
She's all dressed up
She's soft like a kitten
But she'll still mess you up

This girl would bring you to your knees
This girl, she did just as she pleased
Yeah, our minds and our money were her bounty
She was a stunner in gazelles
Yeah, she rung all ten bells
She was fire, she was lust, she was the devil
With a bit of angel dust

Well, if it ain't the queen of Suffolk County
Here comes the queen of Suffolk County
She don't joke and she don't play
Yeah, you know she's here to stay
'Cause she's the queen of Suffolk County
Yeah, she's the queen of Suffolk County
Here comes the queen of Suffolk County
'Cause she's the queen of Suffolk County
