Crystal Closet Queen

(album: Leon Russell And The Shelter People - 1971)

This songs dedicated to the undiluted queen of rock and roll,
And she knows who she is.

Left my home down in the heart of Georgia
Headed out to Hollywood.
All I took with me was my healing music,
Preaching every step that I could.
You ain't heard my rock and roll music,
You ain't never seen nothing like me.
I can wash dishes down in Macon, Georgia
And help a blind eye to see.

I'm gonna sing a little song of love for you one more time,
(Tutti frutti, the beauty's on duty)
Well I'm gonna a little this song of love for you one more time,
(Tutti frutti, the beauty's on duty)
Lord, the beauty's on duty, you know we're gonna have a time.

Move on up to heaven.

Headed up the highway, feelin all right today.
All I got with me is my faith in Jesus,
To show me every step of the way.
Sticks can't burn me, fire can't turn me,
Away from my rock and roll road.
I got a rainbow round my beautiful face,
And I'm living in a pot of gold.

I'm gonna sing a little song of love for you one more time,
(Tutti frutti, the beauty's on duty)
Well I'm gonna sing a little song of love for you one more time,
(Tutti frutti, the beauty's on duty)
Lord, the beauty's on duty, honey you know we're gonna have a time
You know we're gonna have,
You know we're gonna have,
I'm gonna sing a little song of love for you one more time,
(Tutti frutti, the beauty's on duty)
I'm gonna sing a little song of love for you one more time,
(Tutti frutti, the beauty's on duty)
Woh, woh, woh, woh, woh...

I'm gonna sing a little song of love for you one more time,
(Tutti frutti, the beauty's on duty)
Well I'm gonna sing a little song of love for you one more time,
(Tutti frutti, the beauty's on duty)
Lord, the beauty's on duty, you know we're gonna have a time.
