Joni Mitchell - Raised on Robbery слова песни
He was sitting in the lounge of the empire hotelHe was drinking for diversionHe was thinking for himselfA little money riding on the maple leafsAlong comes a lady in lacy sleevesShe says..."let me sit downYou know, drinkin alones a shameIts a shame, its a crying shameLook at those jokersGlued to that damn hockey gameHey honey-youve got lots of cashBring us round a bottleAnd well have some laughsGins what Im drinkingI was raised on robberyIm a pretty good cookIm sitting on my groceriesCome up to my kitchenIll show you my best recipeI try and I try but I cant save a centIm up after midnight, cookingTrying to make my rentIm rough but Im pleasinI was raised on robberyWe had a little money onceThey were pushing through a four iane highwayGovernment gave us three thousand dollarsYou should have seen it fly awayFirst he bought a 57 biscayneHe put it in the ditchHe drunk up all the restThat son of a bitchHis bloods bad whiskeyI was raised on robberyYou know you aint bad lookingI like the way you hold your drinksCome home with me honeyI aint asking for no full length minkHey, where you going...Dont go yet...Your glass aint empty and we just metYoure mean when your loaded-I was raised on robbery"
