Thread Name: The last lyric that made you smile
Subject: RE: The last lyric that made you smile
The Queen of the Ballroom
Still glitters and shines
Each night at the old time parade.

And maybe it's something
They put in the wine
But her beauty refuses to fade

I think she got married
To a stranger, they say
Some crazy old cowboy
Who rode in one day

And the whole town still dances
And the music still plays
There's no telling what a love song can do.


- "No Telling," by Linda Thompson, as adapted by Tom Russell.

Kris heard me singing it, and said, "That makes me think of Kendall and Jacqui." That had already occurred to me.
