Topped the charts at #9 in '59.
1.[D]Well you can talk about your Julie and your [D7]Peggy Sue,
[D]You can keep your Miss Molly and your [D7]Mary-Lou,
[D7]When it [G]comes to the Chicken or doin' the Bop,
[G]Well, [A]I got a girl they call the [A7]Queen of the [A]Hop.
CHORUS: [A7]Oh, I [D]love my queen,
[D]Do you know who I mean?[D7]
[D7]Sweet [G]little sixteen,
[G]Yes [D]that's my queen.

2. [D]Well, she wears short shorts and-a [D7]rock n' roll shoes,
[D]You ought to see her dance to the [D7]Yellow Dog Blues,
[D7]She's my [G]sugar-time baby, she's my lollipop.
[G]And [A]everybody knows she's the[A7] Queen of the[A] Hop.
CHORUS:
3.[D]Oh, yeah, she tunes into Bandstand [D7]every day,
[D7]To [D]watch the kids dancin' 'cross [D7]the USA,
[D7]She don't [G]care about a thing 'cept Rock n' Roll,
[G]My [A]baby drives 'em crazy when she [A7]does the [A]Stroll.
REPEAT VERSE #3.
REPEAT CHORUS:
A fifties favourite from Kraziekhat!
