Takin’ on a Big Thing lyrics

by

Joni Mitchell


Follow the forest
Back down to the brook
He was a lone fin on a big log
Big fish took his hook

In a maiden's mushroom garden
Looking at the birds fly high
I caught him looking up there
Speaking to the sky
Swore he heard her cry

Walk down by the river
Squirrels used to play
What a happy day
But the leaves are falling down
Nearer to the ground
Didn't you know, Joe
Didn't you know

Hey, Joe
You're taking on a big, big thing
You say you've seen her in the sky
Hey Joe
Remember what you said, Joe
Think a little harder
You say look and see what I see
Walk past by the river
Calling for her name
Echoes
Only memories
Something's not the same

Playing games with children
Take it away and they cry
Love is for the lovers
Without you
I think I'm gonna

Hey, Joe
You're taking on a big, big thing
You say there's people in the sky
Hey, Joe
Remember what you said, Joe
Think a little harder
Think a little harder

We think we can really help you
Listen to us, Brother Joe
She's gone where you can't go

Hey, Joe
You're taking on a big, big thing
You say there's people in the sky
Hey, Joe
Remember what you said, Joe
You say
C'mon, Joe
C'mon, c'mon
C'mon, Joe
C'mon

Hey, Joe
You're taking on a big, big thing
Hey, Joe
You're taking on a big, big thing
Hey, Joe
You're taking on a big, big thing
Hey, Joe
You're taking on a big, big thing
Hey, Joe
You're taking on a big, big thing
