Lyrics Rainy Night House - Joni Mitchell

It was a rainy night

We took a taxi to your mother's home

She went to Florida

And left you with your father's gun, alone

Upon her small white bed I fell into a dream

You sat up all the night and watched me

To see who in the world I might be

I am from the Sunday school

I sing soprano in the upstairs choir

You are a holy man on the F.M. radio

I sat up all the night and watched thee

To see who in the world you might be

You called me beautiful

You called your mother, she was very tanned

So you packed your tent and you went

To live out in the Arizona sand

You are a refugee from a wealthy family

You gave up all the golden factories

To see who in the world you might be

Writer(s): Mitchell Joni
