Joni Mitchell

Downtown
My darling dimestore thief
In the war of independence
Rock n roll rang sweet as victory
Under neon signs
A girl was in bloom
And a woman was fading
In a suburban room
I said, "take me to the dance"
"do you want to dance? "
"i love to dance"
And I told him, "they dont take chances
They seem so removed from romance"
"theyve been broken in churches and schools
And molded to middle class circumstance"
And we were rolling, rolling, rock n rolling
Downtown
The dance halls and cafes
Feel so wild you could break somebodys heart
Just doing the latest dance craze
Gail and louise
In those push-up brassieres
Tight dresses and rhinestone rings
Drinking up the bands beers
