She comes on like a rose
And everybody knows
She'll get you in dutch
You can look but you'd better not touch

Poison ivy, poison ivy
Well late at night when you're sleeping
Poison ivy comes a creeping all around

She's pretty as a daisy
But look out man she's crazy
She'll really do you in
If you let her get under your skin

Poison ivy, poison ivy
Well late at night when you're sleeping
Poison ivy comes a creeping all around

Measles make you bumpy and mumps'll make you lumpy
And chicken pox'll make you jump and twitch
A common cold'll cool you but whooping cough'll fool you
But poison ivy's gonna make you itch

You're gonna need an ocean
Of calamine lotion
You'll be scratching like a hound
The minute you start to mess around

Poison ivy, poison ivy
Well late at night when you're sleeping
Poison ivy comes a creeping all around

Measles make you bumpy and mumps'll make you lumpy
And chicken pox'll make you jump and twitch
A common cold'll cool you and whooping cough'll fool you
But poison ivy's gonna make you itch

You're gonna need an ocean
Of calamine lotion
You'll be scratching like a hound
The minute you start to mess around

Poison ivy, poison ivy
Well late at night when you're sleeping
Poison ivy comes a creeping all around

La la la la
La la la la

You don't really understand
How it feels to be your man
You're just nice to have around, now
But i'll let you guess
You can get me
If you let me oh yes

It's nice to talk to you today
It's very pleasant anyway
Is this as far as you go, girl
But i'll let you guess
You can get me
If you let me oh yes

You can get me
If you let me oh yes

Yes, you're younger than i thought
You're so tall and i'm so short
It doesn't matter anyhow
But i'll let you guess
You can get me
If you let me oh yes

It's a brand new thing for me
Loving you so physically
The time has come to say goodnight
But i'll let you guess
You can get me
If you let me oh yes
Oh yes

Put on your red dress baby,
'cause we're going out to night.
Put on your red dress baby,
'cause we're going out to night.
You better wear some boxing gloves
In case a fool might wanna fight.

Put on your high-heel sneakers,
Wear your wig hat on your head.
Put on your high-heel sneakers,
Wear your wig hat on your head.
I'm pretty sure now baby
'cause you know, you're gonna knock 'em dead.

Put on your high-heel sneakers,
Wear your wig hat on your head.
Put on your high-heel sneakers,
Wear your wig hat on your head.
Well i'm pretty sure now darling
'cause you know you gonna knock 'em dead.

Why does the sky turn grey ev'ry night
Sun rise again in time
Why do you think of the first girl you had
Some things just stick in your mind

Why does the rain fall down on the earth
Why do the clouds keep cryin'
Why do you sleep curled up like a child
Some things just stick in your mind

Why when the children grow up and leave
Still remember their nursery rhymes
Why must there be so much hate in their lives
Some things just stick in their minds

(m. jagger/k. richards)

Button your lip baby
Button your coat
Let's go out dancing
Go for the throat
Let's bury the hatchet
Wipe out the past
Make love together
Stay on the path

You're not the only one
With mixed emotions
You're not the only ship
Adrift on this ocean

This coming and going
Is driving me nuts
This to-ing and fro-ing
Is hurting my guts
So get off the fence
It's creasing your butt
Life is a party
Let's get out and strut

You're not the only one
That's feeling lonesome
You're not the only one
With mixed emotions

You're not the only one
You're not the only one
You're not the only one
You're not the only one

Let's grab the world
By the scruff of the neck
And drink it down deeply
Let's love it to death
So button your lip
And button your coat
Let's go out dancing
Let's rock 'n' roll

You're not the only one
With mixed emotions
You're not the only ship
Adrift on this ocean
You're not the only one
That's feeling lonesome
You're not the only one
With mixed emotions

Il sole sta per tramontar
Dei bimbi corrono a giocar
Visi che sorridono
Ed io son qui
Con le mie lacrime cosi

Con la ricchezza io potrei
Comprare quello che vorrei
Ma la gioia semplice
Percio' son qui
Con le mie lacrime cosi

Il sole sta per tramontar
Un'altro giorno se ne va
Tutti si divertono
Ed io son qui
Con le mie lacrime cosi

Exile on mainstreet, it's a strange street to walk down
Exile on mainstreet, it's a strange street to walk down

[all down the line]
Mmm heard the diesel drumming all down the line
Mmm heard the wires a-humming all down the line
Oh, yeah heard the women sighing all down the line
Oh, yeah heard the children crying all down the line

All down the line we'll be watching out for trouble, yeah

[tumbling dice]
Women think i'm tasty
But they're always trying to waste me
And make me burn the candle right down
But baby, baby i don't need no jewels in my frown
'cause all you women is low down gamblers
Cheating like i don't know how
But baby there's a fever in the funk house now
This low down bitchings got my poor feet a-itching
Do you know the deuce is still wild
Baby can't stay, you got to roll me
And call me the tumbling dice

[intro]
Exile on mainstreet, it's a strange street to walk down
Now let it loose, now come on, let it all hang down
Eh round up those people, move them out of town
Gimmie little drink from your loving cup
Now shake your hip mama, keep me all shook up
Feeling so doggone happy like a natural child
Oh help me do the boogie all down the line
Come on virginia, let's shoot some dice
My sweet black angel, shine a light

[shine a light]
Saw you stretched out in room ten o nine
With a smile on your face and a tear right in your eye
Couldn't see to get a line on you, my sweet honey love
Berber, jewelry jangling down the street
Making bloodshot eyes at every woman that you meet
Come out baby to get a high on you, my sweet honey love

May the good lord shine a light on you
Make every song you sing your favorite tune
May the good lord shine a light on you
Warm like the evening sun.
Well you're drunk in the alley baby...

[happy]
Never kept a dollar past sunset
It always burned a hole in my pants
Never made a school mama happy,
Never blew a second chance

I need a love to keep me happy,
I need a love to keep me happy
Baby baby keep me happy,
Baby keep me happy

Always took candy from strangers,
Didn't want to get me no trade
Never want to be like papa,
Working for the boss every night and day

I need a love to keep me happy,
I need a love to keep me happy
Baby baby keep me happy,
Baby baby keep me happy

[outro]
Exile on mainstreet, it's a strange street to walk down
Exile on mainstreet, it's a low down dirty ground.

(m. jagger/k. richards)

In the winter when the cold comes
And the wind blows with a scornful spite
And the hard ground feels barren
And the forest is deathly quiet
And the whole world lies sleeping
There's a gypsy all dressed in white
Put my hand out, ask the question
Here's the silver, do you have the gift of sight

Can you break the spell
Can you ring the bell
Can you break the spell
It's cold black as night
I've got a hard heart
Since we've been apart
Can you break the spell
Break it all down tonight

In the springtime when the floods come
And the earth bursts with the terrible life
And the sun splash on the windows
There's a gypsy and he's all dressed in white
My heart burns with the question
Can you break the spell
Still hot as fire

Can you break the spell
Can you ring the bell
Can you break the spell
It's cold black as night
Cold black as night

(willie dixon)

The spark (stars) in your eyes sets
My soul on fire
Your voice is like an angels above
The touch of your hand drives me insane
But baby, i want to be loved

I'm crazy 'bout ev'ry little thing you do
I cherish the way you hug (me)
Your kiss is so sweet, honey, it can't be beat
But baby, i want to be loved

Ev'ry time i ask you for a date
You don't come at all, or you're mighty late
I ask you to dance, (take) a little spin
You say "wait a minute, daddy,
Here comes my friend"

I love the way you walk when you pass me by
Even when you try to snub (me)
You kill (kiss) me, baby when
You give me the eye
But baby, i want to be loved

Chief to scorn his friends make love to his
Re-la-tions
He beats his wife and made her life a to-tal
Wet va-ca-tion

Now did everybody pay their dues?
Now did end up with tribal blues?
All the braves and squaws and the maids
And the whores
Did, everybody pay their dues?

He's a tribal chief his name is called
Dis-order
His flesh and blood he tears it up when
Acting right is nor-mal

Now did everybody pay their dues?
Now did any of them try to refuse?
All the braves and squaws and the maids
And the whores
Did, everybody pay their dues?

See all the children roses pi-lling
What's all with us to be grown up is to be
Good at ly-ing

Now did everybody pay their dues?
Now did any of them try to refuse?
All the braves and squaws and the maids
And the whores
Did, everybody pay their dues?

It was your father who trained you and your mother
Who brained you
To be so useless and shy
But i just replaced them and tried not to break them
Because you could stand up if you tried
And i wanna see your face when your knees and your legs
Are just gonna break down and die

And, who's driving your plane?
Who's driving your plane?
Who's driving your plane?
Who's driving your plane?
Are you in control or is it driving you insane?

If i could wave a magic wand, then maybe you'd change
Back to bein' a blonde
And your skirt would come down, it would cover your feet!
If i said, "it's not camp to wear tiffany lamps"
You'd be thrown right out in the street

And i wonder who's driving your plane?
Who's driving your plane?
Who's driving your plane?
Who's driving your plane?
Are you in control or is it driving you insane?

You could stand on your head or maybe sing in bed
If i said it was the thing to do
If you're in with the faces and their getaway places
'cause they don't take no notice of you
Well, the trendy pace-setters will just called you a pain
'cause i want to know, who's driving your plane

Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Who do you love?

I walked 47 miles on barb wire,
Use a cobra-snake for a necktie.
Got a brand new house on the roadside,
Made from rattlesnake hide.
I got a brand new chimney on top,
Made from a human skulls.
Now come on baby, let's take a little walk
And tell me, who do you love?

Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Who do you love?

I got a tombstone head and a graveyard mind,
I lived long enough, and i ain't scared of dying

Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Who do you love?

The sky was black and the sky was blue,
Down the alley an ice wagon flew.
Somebody bumped and somebody screamed,
You should've heard just what i seen.

Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Who do you love?

Arlene took me by the hand
She said: "oo - ee, daddy, i understand"

Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Who do you love?

Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Who do you love?

My story is much too sad to be told,
But practically everything leaves me totally cold.
The only exception i know is the case,
When i'm out on a quiet spree fightly vainly the old ennui,
And i suddenly turn and see your fabulous face!

I get no kick from champagne, mere alcohol doesn't thrill me
At all,
So tell me why should it be true, that i get a kick out of you?
Some get a kick from cocaine, i'm sure that if i took even
One sniff
That would bore me terrifically, too, yet i get a kick out of
You.
I get a kick every time i see you're standing there before me.
I get a kick though it's clear to me, you obviously don't
Adore me.
I get no kick in a plane, flying too high with some gal in the
Sky
Is my idea of nothing to do, yet i get a kick out of you!

(jagger/richards)

Baby, baby, baby, baby...

Daddy drunk, daddy drunk himself to death
When he was thirty-five years old
Left five daughters an' book 'em on the cayman row
Put 'em down an' left an' he left all pain to me
An' a pullin' outta dallas
An' the dirt back in tennessee

So i called big sister on the telephone
I said how y'all down there in 'ere call t'home
Girl you won't starve for fortune and fame
To earn big money in dallas and make her name

Lonely hearts
They're just made to break
There ain't no spare parts
Ain't no oil to change

Honey, i ain't accustomed to lose
If i want somethin' bad
I always find a way to get thru

I tell ya somethin'
I ain't accustomed t'lose
If i want somethin' bad enough
I always find a way to get thru

Lonely hearts
They're just made to break
There ain't no spare parts
Ain't no oil to change

I could be there thanksgiving afternoon
With a turkey in m'hand
And ah oughta buy a bottle o' boo'...
I took a short cut about a quarter down
The turnpike road
And i'll fill 'er up with gas
Ah'm a fill 'er 'bout san antone
An' i'll make it t'dallas 'bout a quarter pa'...half past three
Just another 30 miles
On the road back to 443

You know, lonely hearts
They're just made to break
There ain't no spare parts
There ain't no oil to change

I tell ya
I ain't accustomed to lose
If i want somethin' bad enough
I always find a way to get it, baby
Including you

I tell ya something
I ain't ever gonna lose
If i want somethin' bad enough
I always find a way to get it, baby
Including you

I could be there thanksgiving afternoon
If i start off now put my foot down the floor, damn too

I spoke to big sister on the telephone
She said come on big brother
Why don't you come on back home

I said, lonely hearts
They're just made to break
There ain't no spare parts
Aint' no oil to change

I tell ya, honey
I ain't accustomed to lose
If i want somethin' bad enough
I always find a way to get it, mmmmm
Talkin ' bout you

If i want somethin' bad enough
I always find a way to get it don't i?

If i want somethin' bad enough
I always find a way to get it don't i?

If i want somethin' strong enough
I always find a way to get it

Baby! shoo-gahh!
Ahhhh, yah, yah, yah...

Tell ya somethin', babe
I ain't accustomed to lose

If i want somethin' bad enough
I always find a way to get it

If i want somethin' bad enough

Lonely hearts

There ain't no spare parts
There ain't no oil to change

Lonely hearts
They're just made to break
Ain't no spare parts
There ain't no oil to change

Now, i'm, i'm a-comin' back
Comin' back a'home thursday afternoon
If i don't tumble down hard
Really like a way to get thru

They're really rockin boston
In pittsburgh, p. a.
Deep in the heart of texas
And 'round the frisco bay
All over st. louis
Way down in new orleans
All the cats wanna dance with
Sweet little sixteen

Sweet little sixteen
She's just got to have
About half a million
Framed autographs
Her wallet's filled with pictures
She gets 'em one by one
She gets so excited
Won't ya look at her run

Oh mommy mommy
Please may i go
It's such a sight to see
Somebody steal the show
Oh daddy daddy
I beg of you
Whisper to mommy
It's all right with you

Cause they'll be rockin on bandstand
In philadelphia p.a.
Deep in the heart of texas
And 'round the frisco bay
All over st. louis
Way down in new orleans
All the cats wanna dance with
Sweet little sixteen

Sweet little sixteen
She's got the grown up blues
Tight dress and lipstick
She's sportin' high heal shoes
Oh, but tomorrow morning
She'll have to chang her trend
And be sweet sixteen
And back in class again

Cause they'll be rockin on bandstand
In philadelphia p.a.
Deep in the heart of texas
And 'round the frisco bay
All over st. louis
Way down in new orleans
All the cats wanna dance with
Sweet little sixteen

All i want is my baby woah woah, woah woah woah woah

Every place i go, always reminds me
All the times we had, are now behind me

All i want is my baby woah woah, woah woah woah woah

So you told me, i didn't believe you,
I thought i had it made, but now you're leavin'

All i want is my baby woah woah, woah woah woah woah

People ask me, "where are you going?"
I'm always astounded, have no way of knowin'

All i want is my baby woah woah, woah woah woah woah

Through the lonely nights i think of you
Through the lonely hoursi dream of you
I don't no why i do it, but i do
Why do you take it, what's wrong with you?
Ev'ry time i see ya
Ev'ry time i see ya
Ev'ry time i see ya
Ev'ry time i see you

With the lonely weekeend i'm far from you
Why you're coming on, like you're supposed to do?
Oh, but you know me so well,
And your time ain't so hard to sell.

In your cherry dresses and your shiny shoes
In a doorway on some neon walk
Making the lonely pay for me
Why don't we set eachother free.

When did i mislead ya
When did i mistreat ya
When did i mistreat ya
When did i deceive ya

Meet me on the bottom,
Bring me my running shoes.
When i come out the window,
We ain't got time to lose.

Well i ain't superstitious,
But a black cat crossed my trail.
Don't brush me with my broom, babe,
I just might land in jail.

Well my right hand itchin', babe,
I get smothered by the shore.
Look down you engine, babe,
But somebody got to go.

Meet me on the bottom, babe,
Bring me my running shoes.
When i come out the window, babe,
We ain't got time to lose.

Well i hope you are listening,
When i come streaking by.
Got a bad old man, babe,
And i'm too young to die.

Well i ain't superstitious,
But a black cat crossed my trail.
Don't brush me with my broom, babe,
I just might land in jail.

Dogs been barking
All around my neighborhood.
You give a sign, babe,
Ain't do nobody no good.

Spendin' too much time away
I can't stand another day
Maybe you think i've seen the world
But i'd rather see my girl

I'm goin' home, i'm goin' home
I'm goin' home, i'm goin' home
I'm goin' home, bome, bome, bome-bome-bome,
Home, bome, bome, bome, back home
Yes, i am

All those letters ev'ry day
Maybe alright in their way
But i'd love to see your face
When i get home in their place

I'm goin' home, i'm goin' home
I'm goin' home, i'm goin' home
I'm goin' home, bome, bome, bome-bome-bome,
Home, bome, bome, bome, back home

I'm goin' home, bome, bome, bome-bome-bome,
Home, bome, bome, bome, back home
Yes, i will

When you're three thousand miles away
I just never sleep the same
If i packed my things right now
I could be home in seven hours

I'm goin' home, i'm goin' home
I'm goin' home, i'm goin' home
I'm goin' home, bome, bome, bome-bome-bome,
Home, bome, bome, bome, back home

Touch me one more time
Come on little girl
You may look sweet
But i know you ain't
I know you ain't

(robinson/white)

If it's love that you're running from
There's no hiding place
Just your problems, noone else's problems
You'll just have to face
But if you just put your hand in mine
We're gonna leave all the trouble behind

Keep on walking - dont look back!

If your first lover let you down
There's something that can be done
Don't fear the faith and love
Remembering what will come
So, if you just put your hand in mine
We're gonna leave all the trouble behind

Keep on walking - dont look back!

(m. jagger/k. richards)

It's not easy
It's not easy living on your own
It's not easy
It's not easy living on your own
And it's hard (it's not easy)
And it's hard (it's not easy)
And it's a pretty hard thing (it's not easy)
It's not easy living on your own

All of the things that you used to do
If they're done now, well they're done by you
It seems a big failing in a man
To take his girl for granted if he can

And it's hard thing (it's not easy)
And it's hard (it's not easy)
And it's a pretty hard thing (it's not easy)
It's not easy livin' on your own

There's no place where you can call home
Got me running like a cat in a thunderstorm
Just a big bed and a telephone
Like the last remnants of a stately home

And it's a pretty hard thing (it's not easy)
And it's hard (it's not easy)
Well, it's a pretty hard thing (it's not easy)
It's not easy livin' on your own

And it's hard (it's not easy)
And it's hard (it's not easy)
And it's a pretty hard thing (it's not easy)
It's not easy living on your own

Sit here thinking with your head of fire
Go think the same thing and never tire
Imaginin' the glow of her long clean hair
As she goes to sit on her own high chair

And it's hard thing (it's not easy)
Well, it's a pretty hard thing (it's not easy)
Well, it's hard babe (it's not easy)
It's not easy livin' on your own

It's not easy (a pretty tough thing)
It's not easy (well, life pretty rough)
It's not easy (it's a hard time baby)
It's not easy (it's a hard time baby)
It's not easy (it's a pretty hard life)

(morganfield)

Now there's two, there's two trains running
And it never runs my way
Now then one is running at midnight
The other one is running in just four days
Running in just four days,
Running in just four days

Somebody help me with my blues
Now that she's the one, i've been loving
I do hate to lose, i do hate to lose
I do hate to lose

I've been crazy, yes, i've been a fool
I've been crazy all my life

It's not the pale moon that excites me
That thrills and delights me, oh no
It's just the nearness of you

It isn't your sweet conversation
That brings this sensation, oh no
It's just the nearness of you

When you're in my arms and i feel you so close to me
All my wildest dreams come true

I need no soft lights to enchant me
If you'll only grant me the right
To hold you ever so tight
And to feel in the night the nearness of you

(jagger/richards)

I've got itchy fingers, i've got muddy feet
And my mind is wanderin' in the steamin' heat
My head is swimmin' full of dirty lies
I'm tired of spinnin' freaky alibis

I need open spaces to clear my head
Need a clearer view on the road ahead
Need to fill my tank, check the oil
Fix the air conditioner or i'm gonna boil

I'm gonna drive
I'm gonna drive
To the edge of this-uh world

I've seen fire, disaster and hurricane
And sad eyed people and dirty dreams
And battered suit cases and cryin' kids
And resignation at how life is

And easy money and whinin' flow
And pretty pictures of sailin' boats
And double dealers who take it back
If he should mud yer daughter, throw 'im back

I'm gonna drive
I'm gonna drive
I'm gonna drive
I'm gonna drive
To the edge of this-uh world

I'm goin' through a desert across a plain
To the lonely mountain full of cloud and rain
Gonna scream out loud at the risin' sun
Gonna ask for pleasure when my day is done
Yeah, baby, hear my prayin'

I'm gonna drive
I'm gonna drive
I'm gonna drive
I'm gonna drive
To the edge of this-uh world

(m. jagger/k. richards)

I'm givin' you a piece of my mind.

You should just retrace your steps.

And think back, back a little bit baby.
Back, back alright.
Think, think, think back baby.
Think, think back a bit girl.
Think, think, think back baby.
Tell me who's fault was that, babe?

Back, back alright.
Think, think, think back baby.
Think, think back a bit girl.
Think, think, think back baby.
Tell me who's fault was that, babe?

Still, i am the same old me.
You say i lack maturity.

But think back, back a little bit baby.
Back, back, alright!

We're not children anymore.
We don't need to play with toys.
Take a look and you will find
You're gettin' old before your time.

But think back, back a little bit baby.
Back, back alright.
Think, think, think back baby.
Think, think i said back a bit girl.
Think, think, think back baby.
Tell me who's fault was that, babe?

You gotta cook, cook, cook every mornin'
Cook, cook, cook every night
Work hard all of the daytime
And dance, dance, dance all the night
Everytime i'm hungry i get on my knees
You can cook, cook, cook every night

Look, look look for a wife
Took, took, took take a last glance
Before i disappear from sight
So cook, cook, cook
I'm hook, hook, hooked everytime

Would change my mind

Saw her on a highway
Saw her on a skyway
Ahhhh, need a yellow cab, ronnie

I saw her on a highway
On a d-train

Saw her on a subway
On a biplane

I need a yellow cab
Help me get outta this rain

Do you think i could ever care
'bout a girl who's almost never there?
Do you think ......could ever care
'bout a girl who cares about the...the clothes she wears?
Do you think i could ever care
'bout a girl that even dyes her hair?

The song
Do you think
Whooo
Oh no
Whooo

Ohhh, do you think i would really care
'bout a woman......who's never there?
Do you think i'd ever care

Across the seas of doom
To undiscovered countries
But i'll come back to you

Somehow i knew i had the pain again
Somehow i knew i need the pain, yes!

What did-you-do to make me love you too much?
I can't help it if i love you
I can't help it if i love you

Call it novelty fascination

No matter what you say
No matter what you do
I'm lazy as a lion
My body's just for you
Crazy for you
I'm sneaky as a snake
I'm dirty as a dog
I'm rutting like a goat
I'm horny as a hog
Terrifying love

I get these strange strange strange desires
Strange strange strange desires

You're graceful as a bird
My heart is on the wing
You're gentle as a dove
If a humming bird could sing
Crazy for you
You're gunning like a deer
I'm wily as a fox
You're faster than a mare
I'm stronger than an ox
Terrifying love

I get these strange strange strange desires
Strange strange strange desires
Strange strange strange desires

I'm faithful as a swan
I'm darker than a bat
I'm friendly as a bear
And tougher than a rat
No matter what you say
No matter what you do
I'm restless as a cat
All caged up in a zoo
Terrifying love

I get these strange strange strange desires
Strange strange strange desires
Strange strange strange desires

Long distance in formation, give me memphis tennessee
Help me find the party trying to get in touch with me
She could not leave her number, but i know who placed the
Call
'cause my uncle took the message and he wrote it on the
Wall

Help me, information, get in touch with my marie
She's the only one who'd phone me here from memphis
Tennessee
Her home is on the south side, high up on a ridge
Just a half a mile from the mississippi bridge

Help me, information, more than that i cannot add
Only that i miss her and all the fun we had
But we were pulled apart because her mom did not agree
And tore apart our happy home in memphis tennessee

Last time i saw marie she's waving me good-bye
With hurry home drops on her cheek that trickled from her
Eye
Try to put me through to her in memphis tennessee

(jagger/richards)

She's sweet and tender, but i remember
The girl i once knew, made me feel so blue
She loves me madly, i treat her badly
'cause girl, it should be you, it should be you
It should be you, it should be you...

I went all wrong, when you were gone
It seems ashame, but i'm to blame
She loves me madly, i treat her badly
'cause girl, it should be you, it should be you
It should be you, it should be you...

What can i do to win her back
She kisses me but it's not the same

I'm broken hearted, since we parted
I wanna pick up, from where we started
She loves me madly, i treat her badly
'cause girl, it should be you, it should be you
It should be you, it should be you...

(dobie gray)

Day after day i'm more confused
Yet i look for the light
Through the pourin' rain
You know that's a game that i hate to lose
And i'm feeling the strain
Ain't it a shame

Oh, give me the beat, boys, and free my soul
I want to get lost in your rock and roll
And drift away
[repeat]

Beginning to think that i'm wasting time
I don't understand the things i do
The world outside looks so unkind
Now i'm counting on you
To carry me through

Oh, give me the beat, boys, and free my soul
I want to get lost in your rock and roll
And drift away
[repeat]

And when my mind is free
You know a melody can move me
And when i'm feeling blue
The guitar's coming through to soothe me

Thanks for the joy that you're given me
I want you to know i believe in your song
Your rythm and rhyme and harmony
You've helped me along
Makin' me strong

Oh, give me the beat, boys, and free my soul
I want to get lost in your rock and roll
And drift away
[repeat]
Na, na, now won't ya
Won't ya take, oh ha ..take me

Baby, everything is all right, uptight, out of sight
Baby, everything is all right, uptight, out of sight
I'm a poor man's son, from across the railroad tracks,
The only shirt i own , is hanging on my back,
But i'm the envy of every single guy
Since i'm the apple of my girls eye
When we go out stepping on the town.
For a while my money's low,
And my suit's out of style, but it's all right
If my clothes aren't new,
Out of sight, because my heart is true,
She says baby everything is all right,
Uptight, out of sight, baby everything is
All right, uptight, clean out of sight.

(wonder/hunter/pizer/hardaway)

I don't know why i love you babe
I don't know why i love you

You kick me when i'm down that's you're rule
I don't know why i love you baby
But i love you
When are you gonna stop your cheatin ways
With another guy you laugh in my face
Just how long must i be disgraced
Cause i love you baby

I don't know i don't know why babe
I don't know i don't know why baby now
I don't know why i love you baby
But i love you

The wind blows rain into my face
The sun glows at the end of the highway
Child of the moon, rub your rainy eyes
Oh, child of the moon
Give me a wide-awake crescent-shaped smile

She shivers, by the light she is hidden
She flickers like a lamp lady vision
Child of the moon, rub your rainy eyes
Child of the moon
Give me a wide-awake crescent-shaped smile

The first car on the foggy road riding
The last star for my lady is pining
Oh, child of the moon, bid the sun arise
Oh, child of the moon
Give me a misty day, pearly gray, silver, silky faced,
Wide-awake crescent-shaped smile

Goin' down over the sea?

Now the wintertime is coming,
The windows are filled with frost.

(chuck berry)

In the heat of the day down in mobile, alabama
Working on the railroad with the steel driving hammer
Gotta make some money to buy some brand new shoes
Tryin' to find somebody to take away these blues
"she don't love me" hear them singing in the sun
Payday's coming and my work is all done

Later in the evening when the sun is sinking low
All day i been waiting for the whistle to blow
Sitting in a teepee built right on the tracks
Rolling them bones until the foreman comes back
Pick up you belongings boys and scatter about
We've got an off-schedule train comin? two miles about

Everybody's scrambling, running around
Picking up their money, tearing the teepee down
Foreman wants to panic, ?bout to go insane
Trying to get the workers out the way of the train
Engineer blows the whistle loud and long
Can't stop the train, gotta let it roll on

(jagger/richards)

And i just came into town
Well, i heard so much about london

Well, i wait in leicester square
With a come-hither look in my eye
Yeah, i'm leaning on nelsons column
But all i do is talk to the lime

Oh where can i get my cock sucked?
Where can i get my ass fucked?
I may have no money,
But i know where to put it every time

Well, i asked a young policeman
If he'd only lock me up for the night
Well, i've had pigs in the farmyard,
Some of them, some of them, they're alright
Well, he fucked me with his truncheon
And his helmet was way too tight

Oh where can i get my cock sucked?
Where can i get my ass fucked?
I ain't got no money,
But i know where to put it every time

I'm a lonesome schoolboy

(m.jagger/k.richards)

I'm waitin' for you, i'm makin' town
I'm walkin' for you, over ground
I won't see you walkin' away
I can't stand you actin' this way ... i want

I wanna see you, all the way at all
I play hidin' the whole way all the place at all
Ahhh...

Mmmm me i'm, soakin' there, ahhh now over around
I won't see you walkin' away, i won't see you every night
And, i'm not the same, oh
Going away you
Runnin', runnin' away you
All the way, at all
I think, runnin' to hear you
I'm glad, i don't hear you
All the way at all

I'm thinkin'
I soakin' down
I'm lookin' for you
Up town
I'm livin' with you, and zip your gone
Everybody hittin' bottom
Yeah, i won't see you walkin' my way
I won't catch you to me every day
I won't see you you walkin' away, at all
Eeehhh
I won't cry
I won't lie
I know everybody's going there to cry
I won't cry

(dylan)

Well, if you're travelin' in the north country fair,
Where the winds hit heavy on the borderline,
Remember me to one who lives there.
She once was a true love of mine.

Well, if you go when the snowflakes storm,
When the rivers freeze and summer ends,
Please see if she's wearing a coat so warm,
To keep her from the howlin' winds.

Please see for me if her hair hangs long,
If it rolls and flows all down her breast.
Please see for me if her hair hangs long,
That's the way i remember her best.

I'm a-wonderin' if she remembers me at all.
Many times i've often prayed
In the darkness of my night,
In the brightness of my day.

So if you're travelin' in the north country fair,
Where the winds hit heavy on the borderline,
Remember me to one who lives there.
She once was a true love of mine.

(jagger/richards)

Well there's a hole in my chest
Where my heart was
The body refuses to die
And the rain's coming down
The night wont end
It looks like it's set for the night

There's a train pullin' in at the station
And its wheels gonna take me home
When love walks in
And love walks out
I'm movin' to the danger zone

Well i wont breathe a word about it
Cross my heart and hope to die
I give you all the love
In this mighty world
Stand up and testify

I'm a' honest man
I'm a' honest lover
Stand by my word
Don't know no other

I'm a' honest man
I'm a' honest lover
Don't tell my friend
Don't blow my cover

Now there's some wild talkin' innuendo
An' some nasty nail-biting games
When the sun comes up
Look me right in the eye
And tell me you don't feel ashamed

Well, i won't breathe a word about it
Cross my heart and hope to die
When love walks out
And love walks in
The fall-man is gonna cry

I'm a' honest man
I'm a' honest lover
Don't tell my friend
Don't blow my cover

I'm a' honest man
I'm a' honest lover
Don't tell my friend
Don't blow my cover

Now there's a hole in my chest
Where my heart was
And nothing's gonna stop the pain
When the train pull out
The night comes in
Thinkin' of me once again

And i wont breathe a word about it
I know i'm gonna take the blame
Give you all the love
In this mighty world
If you just let me clear my name

I'm a' honest man
I'm a' honest lover
Don't tell my friend
Don't blow my cover

I'm a' honest man
I'm an' honest lover
Tell my friend
Don't know no other

Yeah
Uh-huh
Yeah
Uh-huh
Yeah

C'mon, c'mon
C'mon, c'mon
C'mon, c'mon

Mmh-hmm
Uh-huh
Uh-huh
Mmh-hmm
Mmh-hmm
Uh-huh
Uh-huh
Mmh-hmm...

(cliff)

Well, they tell me of a pie up in the sky
Waiting for me when i die
But between the day you're born and when you die
You know, they never seem to hear even your cry

Chorus:
So as sure as the sun will shine
I'm gonna get my share now what is mine
And then the harder they come
The harder they fall
One and all
The harder they come
The harder they fall
One and all

And the oppressors are trying to track me down
They're trying to drive me underground
And they think that they have got the battle won
I say, forgive them lord, they know not what they've done


And i keep on fighting for the things i want
Though i know that when you're dead you can't
But i'd rather be a free man in my grave
Than living as a puppet or a slave

(jagger/richards/womack)

In a million years
If i can have anymore fun
You gotta go through it
I'm gonna get to me
Al-ways
Are we all gonna do it?

It's starting to becoming a scuffle...

(jagger/richards)

Here's father, his heart screwed on
Yes, here he's got it i'm sure
'cause he lost his life in an accident
Found his heart in the man next door
What exactly's gonna happen
When they do transplant the brain
Will my borrowed brain still compute the same
Or will my daughter suffer so much more

Here comes the girl, she's got her head screwed on
But it ain't screwed on right
Her ambition is to be a prostitute
But the breaks just weren't right
What exactly's gonna happen, tell me
When her father finds out
That his virgin daughter has bordello dreams
And that he's the one she wants to try out
Yeah

There's ma, she's living dangerously
It's a cinch she'll try it anything twice
She thinks she can run right to the whirlpool's edge
And stop herself just in time
What exactly's gonna happen
When she finally fizzles out
The lovers will just be sucked into
To see what the colours of death are all about

Here's the son, has his legs a-screwed on
Yeah, they're screwed on pretty tight
But his brain is loose and it ain't no use
He's already lost the fight
What exactly's gonna happen
When he's finally realized
That he can't play his guitar like e.g. jim
Or write st. augustine if he tried

That's what happens
When a family finds out
That they've been in orbit now for a thousand years
And need a thousand more to climb out

(morganfield)

Well i'm going away to live
Won't be back no more
Going back down south, child
Lord now don't you worry ma

Woman i'm trouble
Trouble and all worried mind
Well i just can't be satisfied
