brandi carlile - joni lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
i knew a wild woman, she threw a party on her grave
she went there tapping her cane and sipping champagne
she’s a wild woman, and she makes me feel so tame
i can take her in a foot race, but i can’t take her anywhere
she laughs at all the pop stars, and she doesn’t even care if they hear her
she’s a game of solitaire

[chorus]
tell ’em that story one more time, joan, i won’t look away
let me leave you in laughter, let me go get you a plate
when i tell you i love you, and you tell me, “okay”
i know you believe me, and that’s love in your way

[verse 2]
the curse of a wild woman is that she doesn’t suffer fools
she won’t make cups of tea, and she doesn’t bandage bruised egos
or superficial wounds
but once i was sat beside her, when a fog rolled on the land
she spoke in sacred language every soul could understand
and with a broken body, many were healed by her hand

[chorus]
let’s go dancing, you can lean on me, joan, i won’t even sway
i’ll find you a five+dollar blackjack table, make some dealer’s day
and when i tell you i love you, and you tell me, “okay”
i know you believe me, and that’s love in your way
[bridge]
she’s a wild (wild) woman
she’s a wild (wild), wild woman

[outro]
i knew a wild woman, mm
touched by a wild woman
believed by a wild woman
to be known, known by a wild woman
a wild, wild, wild woman
