Carey (Live at Universal Amphitheatre, Los Angeles, CA, 8/14-17, 1974) (Live)

Carey (Live) - Joni Mitchell (瓊尼·米契兒)

The wind is in from Africa

Last night I couldn't sleep

Oh you know it sure is

Hard to leave here Carey

But it's really not my home

My fingernails are filthy

I've got beach tar on my feet

And I miss my clean white linen

And my fancy French cologne

Oh Carey get out your cane

And I'll put on some silver

Oh you're a mean old Daddy

But I like you fine

Come on down to the Mermaid Cafe

And I will buy you a bottle of wine

And we'll laugh and toast to nothing

And smash our empty glasses down

Let's have a round for

These freaks and these soldiers

A round for these friends of mine

Let's have another round

For the bright red devil

Who keeps me in this tourist town

Come on Carey get out your cane

I'll put on some silver

Oh you're a mean old Daddy

But I like you

I like you I like you I like you

Maybe I'll go to Amsterdam

Or maybe I'll go to Rome

And rent me a grand piano and put some

Flowers 'round my room

But let's not talk about fare

Thee-welIs now

The night is a starry dome

And they're playin'

That scratchy rock and roll

Beneath the Mantle of the moon

Come on Carey get out your cane

And I'll put on some silver

You're a mean old Daddy but I like you

The wind is in from Africa

And last night I couldn't sleep

Oh you know it sure is hard to leave here

But it's really not my home

Maybe it's been too long a time since

I was scramblin' down in the street

Now they got me used to that clean white linen

And that fancy French cologne

Oh Carey get out your cane

I'll put on my finest silver

Oh you're a mean old Daddy

But I like you

I like you

I like you

I like you

Oh Carey
