You know it's a doggone pity, you used to be so pretty<br />
You used to drive all the guys wild<br />
And I used to dream that you would love me<br />
You always seemed so far above me<br />
Queen of the Prom your reigning days are gone<br />
(Chorus)<br />
Queen of the Prom you wonder what went wrong<br />
Even I could have you now for a song<br />
Queen of the Prom your reigning days are gone<br />
Do you remember bashful Sally, a pile of books and Rand McNally<br />
The night of the Prom her date was watching you<br />
But now she's walking down the street<br />
Lookin' so good, she's got you beat<br />
Queen of the Prom your reigning days are gone<br />
(Chorus)<br />
Another time, another day you could have swept the world away<br />
But all your smiles, all your charms they just slipped away<br />
Queen of the Prom your reigning days<br />
Queen of the Prom your reigning days<br />
Queen of the Prom your reigning days are gone<br />
Yes, it's a doggone pity
