Queen Of The Night * Whitney Houston Official Site

Whitney Houston - Queen Of The Night single front cover

iTunes

“It was great to have Whitney there because, I can honestly say, if she hadn’t been a part of it, and hadn’t written it with us, it probably wouldn’t have made the album. She brought her emotions, her spirit, she never gave up on it. … Her performance was far greater than the song was.”

Daryl Simmons

Songwriters: Whitney Houston, L.A. Reid, Babyface, Daryl Simmons

Producers: Antonio "L.A." Reid, Babyface

Lyrics

I’ve got the stuff that you want
I’ve got the thing that you need
I’ve got more than enough
To make you drop to your knees
‘Cause I’m the queen of the night
The queen of the night
Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah

Don’t make no difference if I’m wrong or I’m right
I’ve got the feeling and I’m willing tonight
Well I ain’t nobody’s angel
What can I say
Well I’m just that way

I’ve got the stuff that you want
I’ve got the thing that you need
I’ve got more than enough
To make you drop to your knees
‘Cause I’m the queen of the night
The queen of the night, oh yeah
Oh yeah, just say it, say it, say it
‘Cause I’m the queen of the night
The queen of the night
Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah

You’ve got a problem with the way that I am
They say I’m trouble and I don’t give a damn
But when I’m bad I know I’m better
I just want to get loose, and turn it up for you

I’ve got the stuff that you want
I’ve got the thing that you need
I’ve got more than enough
To make you drop to your knees
‘Cause I’m the queen of the night
The queen of the night, oh yeah
Oh yeah, just say it, say it again
‘Cause I’m the queen of the night
The queen of the night
Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah

I’ve got the stuff that you want
I’ve got the thing that you need
I’ve got more than enough
To make you drop to your knees
‘Cause I’m the queen of the night
The queen of the night, oh yeah
Oh yeah, oh, say it again
‘Cause I’m the queen of the night
The queen of the night
Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah

‘Cause I’m the queen of the night
The queen of the night
Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah
Say I am your queen
Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah
