מילים לשיר Dreamland – Joni Mitchell

It's a long, long way from Canada
Donkey vendors slicing coconut
No parkas to their name
A long way from snow chains
Black babies covered in baking flour
The cook's got a carnival song
With dreamland coming on
We're going to lay down someplace shady
Dreamland, dreamland
Dreamland, dreamland
Walter Raleigh and Chris Columbus Come marching out of the waves
In the name of the suntan slave
And claim the beach and all concessions
I wrapped that flag around me
Like a Dorothy Lamour sarong
And I lay down thinking national
Dreamland, dreamland
With dreamland coming on Dreamland, dreamland
Goodtime Mary and a fortune hunter
All dressed up to follow the drums
Mary in a feather hulaHeed those trumpets all night long
All saints, all sinners shining
Miss Fortune with a rose on her big game gun
Propped up on a samba beat
With dreamland coming on
Dreamland, dreamland
Dreamland, dreamland Tar baby and the Great White Wonder
Talking over a glass of rum
With the knowledge of things to come
Burning on the inside
And midnight ramblin' on the lawn
There's gambling out on the terrace
As they lead toward temptation
With dreamland coming on
Dreamland, dreamland
Dreamland, dreamland In a plane flying back to winter
A lady in a foreign flag
In shoes full of tropic sand
The hawk howls in New York City
On the arm of her Marlboro Man
Six foot drifts on Myrtle's lawn
With dreamland coming on
As they push the recline buttons down
Dreamland, dreamland Dreamland, dreamland
La, La .
African sand on the trade winds
And the sun on the Amazon
As they push the reline buttons down
Dreamland, dreamland
With dreamland coming on
Dreamland, dreamland.
