about

A tribute to one of the finest and most adorable of our idols …

lyrics

My Bothered Soul

Joni brought me home
And while we rode along
On a night ride home
She sang me a song

The way that only
The one and only Joni can

I first heard this song
Some forty years ago
And it hit me right away
Deeply touched my soul

But the tears I cried
Surely cleaned, cleaned my soul
My bothered soul
And still tonight
She strikes a chord in my soul
In my bothered soul

There’s chords in me
That resonate more to some good old
Rock’n roll, y’see

But the nightshade waves she sends
Always shatter me deeply

Still tonight
Joni’s chords strike a chord
In my soul
They light a light
Fill a hole in my soul
My bothered soul

Joni, she brought me home
And sang me a song
Of hope and hopelessness
Filled me with hope

Filled my soul
My bothered soul
With bittersweet fearless hope
Filled my soul
Made me feel whole
Me and my soul
My bothered soul …
