Of course that doesn't mean She put them there. OTOH: here's what Joni herself had to say about "Raised On Robbery" When I was doing press in Toronto for the last album, a journalist came up to me and he said Raised On Robbery, that represented the birth of your ah, sexuality I said Are you kidding me? Thats a story about an Indian hooker trying to pick up a John in a bar. You think thats MY sexuality? Come home with me honey, Im sitting on my groceries? Joni laughs and continues  People dont listen. yknow Dog eat dog says that. Nothing is savored long enough to really understand. If you were to view yknow, all of this material from record 1 to record 19 now with the addition of these two [Hits & Misses] yea, you would get somewhat of a portrait of the artist but theres more humor there than people realize for one thing.
