Hunter Lyrics - Joni Mitchell

I was alone and sickly 

It was a quarter of a moonlit night 

I heard him cry through my window shade 

And it filled me so full of fright 

But I could not turn my back on him 

I put on the back porch light 

"Can I help you" said the Good Samaritan 

"Can I help you" said the Good Samaritan

I brought him bread and a blanket 

But I told him "You can't come in" 

You can sleep outside in the tool shed 

Though a little rain comes in 

Oh, I don't know you, you're a stranger 

I don't know where you've been 

"You can't come in here" said the keeper of the inn 

"I don't want you in here," said the keeper of the inn 

But I couldn't sleep for the thinking 

You know my night got so insane 

I thought, maybe he was an angel 

And I left him out in the rain 

And what if he was the devil 

He'd be coming after me again 

But when I woke in the weary morning he was gone 

When I woke in the weary morning he was gone 

Photos 

I thought maybe he was an angel 

And I left him out in the rain 

And what if he was the devil 

He'd be coming after me again 

When I woke in the weary morning he was gone 

When I woke in the weary morning, Lord, he was gone
