"Queen of My Double Wide Trailer" is a song written by Dennis Linde, and recorded by American country music artist Sammy Kershaw. It was released in August 1993 as the third single from his album Haunted Heart. It peaked at No. 7 in the United States,[1] and No. 3 in Canada.
The song is a mid-tempo in shifting meters (4/4 and 11/4 time) about a man who, upon losing his lover to a man named Earl, arrives to take her back. Kershaw said that peers had tried to convince him that audiences would be unable to identify with the song, but later pointed out that "Somebody must have identified with it. In fact, this song singlehandedly sold hundreds of thousands of albums".[2] The titular Earl later appears in Linde's "Goodbye Earl", made famous by the then-Dixie Chicks.[3]
