Queen Of Them All
Neil Young · Other Songs - Neil Young
Who's the one who knows
When you're on the ropes
She's the one you can lean on
And I really don't know
why I feel so good
But it's happening to me
so I knock on wood...
Who can call you darling
Who can make you stand
Who's got all the answers
When things get out of hand
Who's got all the moves
She's the queen of them all
When I really don't know
why I feel so good
But it's happening to me
so I knock on wood...
She's the queen of them all
She's the queen of them all
Walkin' proud with her colors showing
She's the queen of them all
When the sun is setting
Who will hold your hand
Who is always there for you
Who can understand
She's got all the moves
She's the queen of them all
Well I really don't know
why I feel so good
But it's happening to me
so I knock on wood...
Queen Of Them All
Neil Young's "Queen Of Them All" stands as a potent example of his late-career exploration of folk-rock and country influences. Recorded during the period surrounding his 2001 album Mystery Train, the track reflects a shift toward more acoustic, storytelling-driven compositions that characterize his work in the 21st century. The song features Young's signature vocal delivery, blending raw emotion with a melodic structure that draws upon traditional American roots music. It exemplifies his ability to craft intimate narratives within a broader folk tradition, maintaining the lyrical depth and sonic texture that have defined his discography for decades. The recording captures a moment where his artistic vision merges personal reflection with the enduring power of classic country and folk forms.
