Morning Morgantown (live at The 2nd Fret, Philadelphia, PA, 3/17/1967) [2nd Set] Songtext
von Joni Mitchell

The Second Prince is very proud to present at this time
And very lucky to welcome back one of our favourite people
One of our favourite performers
One of the country′s very talented young songwriters
Let's have a warm welcome back now for Joni Mitchell

When morning comes to Morgantown
The merchants roll their awnings down
The milk trucks make their morning rounds
In morning Morgantown
We′ll rise up early with the sun
To ride the bus while everyone is yawning
And the day is young
In morning Morgantown

Morning Morgantown
Buy your dreams a dollar down
Morning any town you name
Morning's just the same


We'll find a table in the shade
And sip our tea and lemonade
And watch the mornin′ on parade
In morning Morgantown
Ladies in their rainbow fashions
Coloured stop and go lights flashing
We′ll wink as total strangers pass
In morning Morgantown

Morning Morgantown
Buy your dreams a dollar down
Morning any town you name
Morning's just the same

I′d like to buy you everything
A wooden bird with painted wings
A window full of coloured rings
In morning Morgantown
But the only thing I have to give
To make you smile, to win you with
Are all the mornings still to live
In morning Morgantown

Morning Morgantown
Buy your dreams a dollar down
Morning any town you name
Morning's just the same
Aren′t you glad you came?
Morning Morgantown
