I lost all of my vanity, when I peered into the pool.
I lost all of my innocence, when I fell in love with you.
I never knew a man c'd fall so far 'til I landed here.
Where all of my wounds they turn'd into gold,
when I kissed your hair.
Now, come to me Hannah.
Hannah, won't you come on t' me.
An' I'll lay down this bottle a' wine.
If you just be kind to me.

Ask her why she cries so loud ... will not say a word.
Eyes like ice, and hands that shake. She takes what she deserves.
To celebrate her emptiness. A cold and lonely room.
Y' sweep the floors with your long flowered dress,
if you cannot find a broom.
Now, come to me Hannah.
Hannah won't you come on t' me.
An' I'll lay down this bottle a' wine.
If you just be kind to me.

She got hair that flows right down, right down t' the backs of her knees.
Papa, he was a preacher man, an' Lord, he's hard t' please.
So, she come down from the Ozark hills, to these very streets, to roam.
With a banjo and a Bible,
and a fine tooth comb.
Now, come to me Hannah.
Hannah won't you come on t' me.
An' I'll lay down this bottle a' wine.
If you just be kind to me.

Now, I'd walk one mile on just broken glass, to fall down at your feet.
Mmm, Hannah, you're the Queen of the Street.

I climb'd the tree with my Hannah-Lee. My intentions they were pure.
Oh, the breeze did rip, and I lost my grip,
an' I tumbled towards the earth.
Where you never would guess who it was, that stood below.
His name I will never tell.
His eyes were clear, n' his arms were strong, n' he caught me as I fell.
Now, come to me Hannah.
Hannah won't you come on to me.
An' I'll lay down this bottle a' wine
If you just be kind to me.

Now, I'd walk one mile on just broken glass, to fall down at your feet.
Mmm, Hannah you're the Queen of the Street.
The Queen of the Street.
This song is from the album "Trouble".
