Jolene - Janis Ian (珍妮斯·艾恩)[00:00:00]
Jimmy sits in his room 'til darkness[00:00:21]
Then he steps on the street[00:00:25]
And she watches and waits at the window [00:00:29]
Aondering who he'll meet[00:00:35]
It's a wasteland of TV dinners[00:00:39]
It's a highway in heat[00:00:43]
And there's nothing but time on the table[00:00:48]
Clocking the same old beat[00:00:51]
Jolene steps out like the life of the party[00:00:55]
High class heels and polka dot sleeves[00:01:00]
Wears her hair like a girl in a hurry[00:01:04]
Walking and talking and rocking[00:01:09]
To the beat of the street[00:01:12]
There's a crowd at the park on the corner[00:01:23]
Jimmy rushes to see[00:01:27]
On the ground is a lady in labor[00:01:32]
Jimmy forgets how to breath[00:01:35]
And it's coming too fast for a doctor[00:01:41]
And the traffic's obscene[00:01:45]
And the people are panicked and shouting[00:01:50]
Somebody do something[00:01:53]
Jolene steps in like the life of the party[00:01:57]
Kicks her heels off rolls up her sleeves[00:02:02]
Parts that crowd like a girl in a hurry[00:02:06]
Walking and talking and rocking[00:02:11]
To the beat of the street[00:02:14]
And she's smiling crying[00:02:23]
Doctoring as neat as you please[00:02:28]
People are laughing clapping[00:02:32]
She gets up off her knees [00:02:37]
Rolling down her sleeves[00:02:40]
Holding up the kid so everybody can see[00:02:42]
Jimmy offers his arm in the silence[00:02:45]
And the night comes alive[00:02:52]
And he drowns in her smile as the sirens[00:02:56]
Finally arrive[00:03:00]
There are forms to be filled say the medics[00:03:05]
As they canvas the crowd[00:03:09]
It was dangerous foolish and reckless[00:03:14]
This kind of thing shouldn't be allowed[00:03:17]
Jolene struts off like the life of the party[00:03:21]
High class heels and polka dot sleeves[00:03:26]
Arm in arm That's the end of the story[00:03:30]
They're walking and talking[00:03:35]
And they're rocking to the beat of the street[00:03:35]
