The American Elm cultivar Ulmus americana 'Queen City' was a selection made c. 1944 from a tree growing on the Lake Shore Boulevard, Toronto.
The tree was distinguished by its symmetric vase-shape, dense branching, the lateral branches extending horizontally, and smooth bark.
'Queen City' was first marketed by the Sheridan Nurseries, Toronto, Ontario, in 1949; it is not known to remain in cultivation.
The name 'Queen City' is normally applied to Buffalo, as either the queen of New York State, the king being New York City, or the queen of the Great Lakes, the king being Chicago, the largest city on its shores. Why the name was applied to the elm is unknown, although Buffalo was once renowned for the fine American Elms elms populating its boulevards and parkways.
When we are riding in our car
So far, we do not have second thoughts
And when we're riding in our hood
So good, we do not have second thoughts
A city heart (city heart)
A city heart (city heart)
A city heart
I don't know nothing
(City heart) a city heart
(City heart) a city heart
(City heart) a city heart
I don't know nothing
But we are riding in our car
And when the city goes to sleep
So deep, we do not have second thoughts
And when we're running in the night
It's all right, we do not have second thoughts
A city heart (city heart)
A city heart (city heart)
A city heart,

I don't know nothing
But we are riding in our car
And when we are taking it too far,
You, you mean like in the bar, yeah
We do not have second thoughts, no!
And when we are running in our hood
So good, we do not have second thoughts
A city heart (city heart)
A city heart (city heart)

We're gods and toys
We're making some noise
We got no choice
