The Ballad Of Butterfly McQueen Lyrics

Don't judge me badly,

The movies where I've been

Weren't all big smash !

Excuse me, dear Metro Goldwin.

And God knows if I tried,

I could easily cry

When I think of my old days…

My whole life

Has gone

With the wind,

My career

Will live on

On that big screen,

And I'm still riding high,

And I still play about,

My name is McQueen Butterfly.

Please Mister Goldwin,

Don't ask me where I've been

I've been gobsmacked,

Oh yes my dear Metro Goldwin !

But I know if I tried,

I could easily smile

When I think of my big break…

My whole life

Has gone

In the wind,

I feel proud

Trapped in those

Bloody make-ups !

And I'm still riding high,

And I still play about,

My name is McQueen Butterfly,

Hmm hmm, hmm hmm hm

My name is McQueen Butterfly.
