That Song About The Midway Lyrics

Cover art for That Song About The Midway lyrics by Joni Mitchell

This song is about Joni Mitchell and David Crosby. They were in a relationship at the time that they lived in Laurel Canyon California, maybe 1967 or thereabouts, but the relationship was rocky because of Crosby's drug use and erratic behaviour. Joni Mitchell wrote this song as a "break up" song and arived at a party where Crosby was present and sang it to him-twice! He got the message!!!
