[Verse 1]
She twirled baton in high school
She was a dairy queen
Her boyfriend played football
Drove a '56 Chevy that was cream
And they hung out at the alleys
On a weekend night
Dairy queen

[Verse 2]
They say she looks like Harlow
But her mother doesn't care
Wants to keep her on the dairy
To work and earn her board 'cause she thinks it's fair
Miss Crystal wants to go to Reno
Dance in a chorus line
Dairy queen

[Bridge]
She wishes on a star every night before she goes to bed
Wants to get ahead and represent a company
Wants to be queen of the fair
Dairy queen

[Verse 3]
Her mother's eyes are cryin'
Hates to see her daughter go
But Miss Crystal's got to do it
If she's ever goin' to be out on her own
She got beauty goin' for her
All she needs is luck
Dairy queen
Dairy queen
