Minstrel and Queen - Curtis Mayfield, The Impressions

Queen majesty, may I speak to thee

So much I have longed, I’ve longed to speak to you alone

True I agree, I’m not of your society

I’m not a king just a minstrel

With my songs to you I moan

Though just a minstrel in life we’re so far apart

But royal queen I see love in your heart, your heart

I love you too, your majesty… hmmmmm

Isn’t this really true

These things I ask of you… hmmmm

Oh, oh majesty could you really care for me

Minstrel and Queen

A Queen with no king

I’m a minstrel subpar, but could this really mean anything

As long as you love me

And it won’t be so hard

As long as I see love love in your heart, (your heart)

I love you too, (honest I do)

Hmmmm.(your majesty), hmmmm.(your majesty)

Ohh I love you too, (your majesty)

Hmmmm queen majesty…
