Queen Of The Highway""' is a song by the rock group The Doors, from their 1970 album Morrison Hotel. It is the ninth, and third-to-last track on that album. The lyrics were written by lead singer Jim Morrison and are believed to be about his girlfriend Pamela Courson, with the lines "She was a princess / Queen of the Highway" referring to her, the "He was a Monster / Black dressed in leather" being a description of Jim Morrison himself, and the "I hope it can continue / Just a little while longer" lines being perhaps, as suggested in No One Here Gets Out Alive, a "sardonic reference to their troubled love".
