Queen Of The Rodeo Lyrics
My daddy was a trucker
Left home when I was three
He fell for some dude in Austin
Then it was mom and me
She always wanted a daughter
Well look at what she got
A'hit me, beat me, a faggot I ain't
But a real man they say I'm not
I'm the queen, queen of the rodeo
Queen, queen of the rodeo
So cowboy, if you're lookin for lovin'
I ain't no queer, go fuck a steer
"I think there's one over there..."
I drink too much, I smoke too much
I'm a human waste
I buy a lot of cheap alcohol
But I'll tell ya honey, I really hate the taste
I dressed in drag, they call me a fag
But boy, I really don't care
Cause last night I met your girlfriend, sucker
And I hope ya like to share, cause she did
I'm the queen, queen of the rodeo
Queen, queen of the rodeo
So cowboy, if you're lookin to fight
I ain't no wimp, I scratch and bite
"And I'm gonna kick your ass too..."
Queen, queen of the rodeo
FUCK YOU!
Queen, queen of the rodeo
Queen, queen of the rodeo
I thought there was only a live version of this...at least the version I have. You know, in the beginning of the live one, Staley says "Seeing how we're in Dallas, thought we'd sing a little country song". So I think he is kind of mocking homophobes or the stereotype of all country music being homophobic and/or racist, sexist, ect.
I agree. I think it's a goof song but I also think that's kinda snuck in there, hence the singer getting beaten up for being a "fag" and then plowing the antagonist's mother... haha

this is what Layne said in a interview "the songs are about things that we were thinking and we wrote them down, and when u listen 2 them, whatever u think its about... THATS what its about!"
This song cracks me up... I love the random FUCK YOU in the middle of it. I wish I could have partied with AIC, wouldve been great.
funny song i think's its on the box set too
The live version is way better than the studio version. It just sounds like Layne and the boys were dickin around when they recorded it (and there's nothing wrong with havin a little fun at work) I love playin the live version at night drivin around with my buddies. FUCK YOU! I dedicate this to the god damn cops in Erie. fuckin pigs
So cowboy, if you're lookin' to fight I ain't no wimp, I scratch and bite
I love the humor packed in these two lines. Considering how dark most of AIC's material is, this is refreshing. Not that I hate the dark numbers.
this song was about the actual writers (David Dunihoo) adoulecent. his step dad was a total douche, people were always judging him, and he is still to this day a heavy smoker. Alice in Chains stole it from him.
Layne's friend wrote it,they just played it,it's pretty funny
Actually, they stole it from a former member. They only used it as an underground song so they wouldn't need to credit him. I know him, his girlfriend at the time told me about it. She siad they had the lyrics on thier closet walls for years before Alice In Chains preformed it. His name is David Dunnihoo.

The song was written by Jett Silver, Layne's friend and Layne himself when he was in Alice 'N Chains
