מילים לשיר In France They Kiss On Main Street – Joni Mitchell

Downtown
In the War of Independence
With my darling dimestore thief
Rock 'n Roll rang sweet as victory
A girl was in bloom
And a woman was fading in a suburban room
Under neon signs
I said, "Take me to the dance"
And I told him, "They don't take chances
"Do you want to dance"
And they seem so removed from romance"
"They've been broken in churches and schools
"I love to dance"
And molded to middle class circumstance"
We were rolling, rolling, rock 'n rolling The dance halls and cafes
Downtown
Feel so wild you could break somebody's heart
Doing the latest dance craze
Gail and Louise
Young love was kissing under bridges
In those pushTight dresses and rhinestone rings
Drinking up the band's beer
Walking down Main Street
Kissing in cars, kissing in cafes
Kisses like bright flags on holidays
"In France they kiss on Main Street" "Amour, mama, not cheap display"
And we were rolling, rolling, rock 'n rolling
Downtown
In the pinball arcade
With his head full of pool hall pitches
And songs from the hit parade
While he's racking up his free play
He'd be singing "Bye, Bye, Love"
Let those rock 'n roll choir boys
Or Lead Foot Melvin with his hotCome and carry us away
Sometimes Chickie had the car
Or Ron had a car
We'd all go looking for a party
Looking to raise Jesus up from the dead
I'd be kissing in the backstreet
Thrilling to the BrandoAnd we'd be rolling, rolling, rock 'n rolling.
