Текст (слова) песни: Joni Mitchell - Raised on robbery

RAISED ON ROBBERY

He was sitting in the lounge of the Empire Hotel
He was drinking for diversion
He was thinking for himself
A little money riding on the Maple Leafs
Along comes a lady in lacy sleeves
She says...
"Let me sit down
You know, drinkin` alone`s a shame
It`s a shame, it`s a crying shame
Look at those jokers
Glued to that damn hockey game
Hey honey-you`ve got lots of cash
Bring us round a bottle
And we`ll have some laughs
Gin`s what I`m drinking
I was raised on robbery

I`m a pretty good cook
I`m sitting on my groceries
Come up to my kitchen
I`ll show you my best recipe
I try and I try but I can`t save a cent
I`m up after midnight, cooking
Trying to make my rent
I`m rough but I`m pleasin`
I was raised on robbery

We had a little money once
They were pushing through a four Iane highway
Government gave us three thousand dollars
You should have seen it fly away
First he bought a `57 Biscayne
He put it in the ditch
He drunk up all the rest
That son of a bitch
His blood`s bad whiskey
I was raised on robbery

You know you ain`t bad looking
I like the way you hold your drinks
Come home with me honey
I ain`t asking for no full length mink
Hey, where you going...
Don`t go yet...
Your glass ain`t empty and we just met
You`re mean when your loaded-
I was raised on robbery"
