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

Written by：Joni Mitchell[00:00:03]

The big man arrives[00:00:08]

Disco dancers greet him[00:00:13]

Plainclothes cops greet him[00:00:15]

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

Sophomore jive[00:00:27]

From victims of typewriters[00:00:31]

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

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

His eyes hold Edith[00:00:46]

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

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

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

Edith in the ring[00:01:05]

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

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

All claws for now withdrawn[00:01:17]

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

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

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

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

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

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

Gently to the spoon[00:01:56]

Edith in his bed[00:02:02]

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

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

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

Bars in her head[00:02:22]

Beating frantic and snowblind[00:02:26]

Romantic and snowblind[00:02:29]

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

Edith and the kingpin[00:02:41]

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

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

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

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