The Dry Cleaner From Des Moines (LP Version)歌词

[00:00.000] 作词 : Joni Mitchell
[00:00.549] 作曲 : Charles Mingus
[00:01.99]I'm down to a roll of dimes
[00:05.18]I'm stalking the slot that's hot
[00:07.07]I keep hearing bells all around me
[00:09.29]
[00:09.95]Jingling in the lucky jackpots
[00:12.43]They keep you tantalized
[00:13.97]They keep you reaching for your wallet
[00:15.70]Here in fools' paradise
[00:17.43]I talked to a cat from des moines
[00:19.53]
[00:20.52]He said he ran a cleaning plant
[00:22.40]
[00:22.91]That cat was clanking with coin
[00:25.59]Well he must have had a genie in a lamp
[00:28.02]'Cause every time I dropped a dime I blew it
[00:30.47]He kept ringing bells
[00:31.82]Nothing to it
[00:33.54]He got three oranges
[00:35.34]Three lemons
[00:36.14]Three cherries
[00:36.76]Three plums
[00:37.37]I'm losing my taste for fruit
[00:39.53]Watching the dry cleaner do it
[00:41.47]
[00:42.18]Like midas in a polyester suit
[00:44.68]It's all luck
[00:45.91]It's just luck
[00:46.94]
[00:47.51]You get a little lucky and you make a little
[00:49.82]Money
[00:51.28]
[01:06.74]I followed him down the strip
[01:08.96]
[01:09.62]He picked out a booth at circus circus
[01:11.64]Where the cowgirls fill the room
[01:12.84]With their big balloons
[01:14.49]The cleaner was pitching with purpose
[01:17.34]He had dinos and pooh bears
[01:18.91]And lions pink and blue there
[01:21.34]He couldn't lose there
[01:23.85]
[01:33.37]It's all luck
[01:34.12]It's just luck
[01:35.38]
[01:37.88]Des moines was stacking the chips
[01:40.50]Raking off the tables
[01:41.84]Ringing the bandit's bells
[01:44.13]This is a story that's a drag to tell
[01:46.22]In some ways
[01:46.91]Since I lost every dime
[01:48.25]I laid on the line
[01:49.48]But the cleaner from des moines
[01:50.91]Could put a coin
[01:51.90]In the door of a John
[01:53.48]And get twenty for one
[01:54.60]It's just luck
[01:56.86]
[02:26.17]Lucky lucky so lucky
[02:32.96]You lucky
[02:34.36]
[02:45.42]That's catch what luck
[02:46.83]
[02:47.90]That's catch what luck
[02:49.37]
[02:50.73]That's catch what luck
[02:52.05]
[02:53.14]That's catch what luck
[02:54.87]
