lirik lagu carey (2021 remaster) – joni mitchell
[verse 1]
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 got beach tar on my feet
and i miss my clean white linen
and my fancy french cologne
[chorus]
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
[verse 2]
come on down to the mermaid café 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
[chorus]
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
[verse 3]
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*wells now
the night is a starry dome
and they’re playin’ that scratchy rock and roll
beneath the matala moon
[chorus]
come on, carey, get out your cane
and i’ll put on some silver
you’re a mean old daddy
but i like you
[verse 4]
the wind is in from africa
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
[chorus]
oh, carey, get out your cane
i’ll put on my finest silver
we’ll go to the mermaid café
have fun tonight
i said, oh, you’re a mean old daddy
but you’re out of sight
