《Edith And The Kingpin(LP版)》歌词

[00:00:00] Edith And The Kingpin (LP版) - Joni Mitchell

[00:00:03] Written by：Joni Mitchell

[00:00:08] The big man arrives

[00:00:13] Disco dancers greet him

[00:00:15] Plainclothes cops greet him

[00:00:19] Small town big man fresh lipstick glistening

[00:00:27] Sophomore jive

[00:00:31] From victims of typewriters

[00:00:34] The band sounds like typewriters

[00:00:38] The big man he's not listening

[00:00:46] His eyes hold Edith

[00:00:48] His left hand holds his right

[00:00:52] What does that hand desire

[00:00:57] That he grips it so tight

[00:01:05] Edith in the ring

[00:01:08] The passed over girls are conferring

[00:01:12] The man with the diamond ring is purring

[00:01:17] All claws for now withdrawn

[00:01:24] One by one they bring

[00:01:28] His renegade stories to her

[00:01:32] His crimes and his glories to her

[00:01:36] In challenge they look on

[00:01:43] Women he has taken grow old too soon

[00:01:49] He tilts their tired faces

[00:01:56] Gently to the spoon

[00:02:02] Edith in his bed

[00:02:05] A plane in the rain is humming

[00:02:10] The wires in the walls are humming

[00:02:16] Some song some mysterious song

[00:02:22] Bars in her head

[00:02:26] Beating frantic and snowblind

[00:02:29] Romantic and snowblind

[00:02:33] She says his crime belongs

[00:02:41] Edith and the kingpin

[00:02:43] Each with charm to sway

[00:02:47] Are staring eye to eye

[00:02:52] They dare not look away

[00:02:56] You know they dare not look away
