I heard about Count Basie and the Queen of Soul
The Empress of the Blues, and the King of Rock n Roll
I heard of Pharoh Sanders, and that is when I knew
That I'm entitled to a title too

I am the Princess of Wails, I am the Princess of Wails
You better grab the guard rails
Cause I'm the Princess of Wails

On the day I was born, when they slapped my behind
I let out a sound that blew the doctor's mind
I leveled that hospital with the force of my gale
And they had to weigh me on the Richter scale

I am the Princess of Wails, I am the Princess of Wails
My subjects love my exhales
Cause I'm the Princess of Wails

I went to Block Island, there was a terrible storm
The Sailors at sea they had to be warned
They needed a foghorn cause theirs had broke down
And that's when I made the Long Island Sound

I am the Princess of Wails, I am the Princess of Wails
I put the wind in your sails
Cause I'm the Princess of Wails

I had me a pilot, he called me his girl
He'd make love to me then fly around the world
And after each flight he wore a different perfurme
And that's when I lowered my sonic boom

I am the Princess of Wails, I am the Princess of Wails
I make my own vapor trails
Cause I'm the Princess of Wails
