Lyrics

She was a princess, Queen of the highway
Sign on the road said, "Take us to Madre"
No one could save her, save the blind tiger
He was a monster, black dressed in leather
She was a princess, Queen of the highway
Now they are wedded, she is a good girl
Naked as children out in the meadow
Naked as children, wild as can be
Soon to have offspring, start it all over
Start at all over
American boy, American girl
Most beautiful people in the world
Son of a frontier Indian swirl
Dancing through the midnight whirl-pool
Formless, hope it can
Continue a little while longer
Written by: Jim Morrison, John Densmore, Ray Manzarek, Robby Krieger
