My Old Man Lyrics - Blue - Joni Mitchell

My old man 

He's a singer in the park 

He's a walker in the rain 

He's a dancer in the dark 

We don't need no piece of paper 

From the city hall 

Keeping us tied and true 

No, my old man 

Keeping away my blues 

He's my sunshine in the morning 

He's my fireworks at the end of the day 

He's the warmest chord I ever heard 

Play that warm chord, play and stay baby 

We don't need no piece of paper 

From the city hall 

Keeping us tied and true 

My old man 

Keeping away my blues

But when he's gone 

Me and them lonesome blues collide 

The bed's too big 

The frying pan's too wide 

Then he comes home 

And he takes me in his loving arms 

And he tells me all his troubles 

And he tells me all my charms 

We don't need no piece of paper 

From the city hall 

Keeping us tied and true 

No, my old man 

Keeping away my blues 

But when he's gone 

Me and them lonesome blues collide 

The bed's too big 

The frying pan's too wide

No, my old man 

Keeping away my lonesome blues
