I was born in a cross-fire hurricane 
And I howled at my ma in the driving rain, 
But it's all right now, in fact, it's a gas! 
But it's all right. I'm Jumpin' Jack Flash, 
It's a gas! Gas! Gas! 

I was raised by a toothless, bearded hag, 
I was schooled with a strap right across my back, 
But it's all right now, in fact, it's a gas! 
But it's all right, I'm Jumpin' Jack Flash, 
It's a gas! Gas! Gas! 

I was drowned, I was washed up and left for dead. 
I fell down to my feet and I saw they bled. 
I frowned at the crumbs of a crust of bread. 
Yeah, yeah, yeah 
I was crowned with a spike right thru my head. 
But it's all right now, in fact, it's a gas! 
But it's all right, I'm Jumpin' Jack Flash, 
It's a gas! Gas! Gas! 

Jumping Jack Flash, its a gas 
Jumping Jack Flash, its a gas 
Jumping Jack Flash, its a gas 
Jumping Jack Flash, its a gas 
Jumping Jack Flash

What a drag it is getting old
"Kids are different today,"
I hear ev'ry mother say
Mother needs something today to calm her down
And though she's not really ill
There's a little yellow pill
She goes running for the shelter of a mother's little helper
And it helps her on her way, gets her through her busy day

"Things are different today,"
I hear ev'ry mother say
Cooking fresh food for a husband's just a drag
So she buys an instant cake and she burns her frozen steak
And goes running for the shelter of a mother's little helper
And two help her on her way, get her through her busy day

Doctor please, some more of these
Outside the door, she took four more
What a drag it is getting old

"Men just aren't the same today"
I hear ev'ry mother say
They just don't appreciate that you get tired
They're so hard to satisfy, You can tranquilize your mind
So go running for the shelter of a mother's little helper
And four help you through the night, help to minimize your plight

Doctor please, some more of these
Outside the door, she took four more
What a drag it is getting old

"Life's just much too hard today,"
I hear ev'ry mother say
The pusuit of happiness just seems a bore
And if you take more of those, you will get an overdose
No more running for the shelter of a mother's little helper
They just helped you on your way, through your busy dying day

. . .


Sun turning 'round with graceful motion
We're setting off with soft explosion
Bound for a star with fiery oceans

It's so very lonely, you're a hundred light years from home

Freezing red deserts turn to dark
Energy here in every part

It's so very lonely, you're six hundred light years from home

It's so very lonely, you're a thousand light years from home
It's so very lonely, you're a thousand light years from home

Bell flight fourteen you now can land
Seen you on Aldebaran, safe on the green desert sand
It's so very lonely, you're two thousand light years from home
It's so very lonely, you're two thousand light years from home

. . .



My, My, My, My 
Don't you worry 'bout what's on your mind (Oh my) 
I'm in no hurry I can take my time (Oh my) 
I'm going red and my tongue's getting tied (tongues's getting tied) 
I'm off my head and my mouth's getting dry. 
I'm high, But I try, try, try (Oh my) 
Let's spend the night together 
Now I need you more than ever 
Let's spend the night together now 

I feel so strong that I can't disguise (oh my) 
Let's spend the night together 
But I just can't apologize (oh no) 
Let's spend the night together 
Don't hang me up and don't let me down (don't let me down) 
We could have fun just groovin' around around and around 
Oh my, my 
Let's spend the night together 
Now I need you more than ever 
Let's spend the night together 

Let's spend the night together 
Now I need you more than ever 

You know I'm smiling baby 
You need some guiding baby 
I'm just deciding baby; now- 
I need you more than ever 
Let's spend the night together 
Let's spend the night together now 

This doesn't happen to me ev'ryday (oh my) 
Let's spend the night together 
No excuses offered anyway (oh my) 
Let's spend the night together 
I'll satisfy your every need (every need) 
And I now know you will satisfy me 
Oh my, my, my, my, my 
Let's spend the night together 
Now I need you more than ever 
Let's spend the night together now

Rolling Stones - You Better Move On

You ask me to give up the hand of the girl I love
You tell me, I'm not the man she's worthy of
But who are you to tell her who to love?
That's up to her, yes, and the Lord above
You better move on
Well I know you can buy her fancy clothes
But I believe she's happy with me without those things
Still you beg me to set her free
But my friend, that will never be
You better move on
Now I don't blame you for loving her
But can't you understand, man, she's my girl
And I, never never ever gonna let her go
Cuz I, yeah, I love her so
I think you better go now , I'm getting mighty mad
You ask me to give up the only love I've ever had
Maybe I would, oh, but I love her so
I'm never gonna let her go
You better move on


. . .


We don't care if you only love "we"
We don't care if you only love "we"
We love you. We love you, and we hope
that you will love "we" too
We love "they". We love "they", and
we want you to love "they" too
Ah

We don't care if you hound "we" and
love is all around "we"
Love can't get our minds off
We love you, we love you

You will never win "we"
Your uniforms don't fit "we"
We forget the place we're in
'Cause we love you
We love you. Of course, we do

I love you. I love you
And I hope that you won't prove wrong
too
We love you. We do. We love you. We
do. Ah...

Ev'rywhere I hear the sound of marching, charging feet, boy 
'Cause summer's here and the time is right for fighting in the street, boy 
But what can a poor boy do 
Except to sing for a rock 'n' roll band 
'Cause in sleepy London town 
There's just no place for a street fighting man 
No 

Hey! Think the time is right for a palace revolution 
'Cauce where I live the game to play is compromise solution 
Well, then what can a poor boy do 
Except to sing for a rock 'n' roll band 
'Cause in sleepy London town 
There's no place for a street fighting man 
No 

Hey! Said my name is called disturbance 
I'll shout and scream, I'll kill the king, I'll rail at all his servants 
Well, what can a poor boy do 
Except to sing for a rock 'n' roll band 
'Cause in sleepy London town 
There's no place for a street fighting man 
No

She comes in colors ev'rywhere; 
She combs her hair 
She's like a rainbow 
Coming, colors in the air 
Oh, everywhere 
She comes in colors 

She comes in colors ev'rywhere; 
She combs her hair 
She's like a rainbow 
Coming, colors in the air 
Oh, everywhere 
She comes in colors 

Have you seen her dressed in blue? 
See the sky in front of you 
And her face is like a sail 
Speck of white so fair and pale 
Have you seen a lady fairer? 

She comes in colors ev'rywhere; 
She combs her hair 
She's like a rainbow 
Coming, colors in the air 
Oh, everywhere 
She comes in colors 

Have you seen her all in gold? 
Like a queen in days of old 
She shoots her colors all around 
Like a sunset going down 
Have you seen a lady fairer? 

She comes in colors ev'rywhere; 
She combs her hair 
She's like a rainbow 
Coming, colors in the air 
Oh, everywhere 
She comes in colors 

She's like a rainbow 
Coming, colors in the air 
Oh, everywhere 
She comes in colors

. . .



She would never say where she came from 
Yesterday don't matter if it's gone 
While the sun is bright 
Or in the darkest night 
No one knows 
She comes and goes 

Goodbye, Ruby Tuesday 
Who could hang a name on you? 
When you change with every new day 
Still I'm gonna miss you... 

Don't question why she needs to be so free 
She'll tell you it's the only way to be 
She just can't be chained 
To a life where nothing's gained 
And nothing's lost 
At such a cost 

There's no time to lose, I heard her say 
Catch your dreams before they slip away 
Dying all the time 
Lose your dreams 
And you will lose your mind. 
Ain't life unkind? 

Goodbye, Ruby Tuesday 
Who could hang a name on you? 
When you change with every new day 
Still I'm gonna miss you...

Rolling Stones - Dandelion

Prince or pauper, beggar man or thing
Play the game with ev'ry flow'r you bring
Dandelion don't tell no lies
Dandelion will make you wise
Tell me if she laughs or cries
Blow away dandelion

One o'clock, two o'clock, three o'clock, four o'clock chimes
Dandelions don't care about the time
Dandelion don't tell no lies
Dandelion will make you wise
Tell me if she laughs or cries
Blow away dandelion, blow away dandelion

Tho' you're older now its just the same
You can play this dandelion game
When you're finished with your childlike prayers
Well, you know you should wear it

Tinker, tailor, soldier, sailors lives
Rich man, poor man, beautiful, daughters wives
Dandelion don't tell no lies
Dandelion will make you wise
Tell me if she laughs or cries
Blow away dandelion, blow away dandelion

Little girls, and boys come out to play
Bring your dandelions to blow away
Dandelion don't tell no lies
Dandelion will make you wise
Tell me if she laughs or cries
Blow away dandelion, blow away dandelion

Rolling Stones - Sittin' on a Fence

Since i was young i've been very hard to please
And i don't know wrong from right
But there is one thing i could never understand
Some of the sick things that a girl does to a man, so
I'm just sittin' on a fence
You can say i got no sense
Trying to make up my mind
Really is too horrifying
So i'm sittin on a fence
All of my friends at school grew up and settled down
And they mortgaged up their lives
One things not said too much, but I think it's true
They just get married cause there's nothing else to do, so
I'm just sittin' on a fence
You can say i got no sense
Trying to make up my mind
Really is too horrifying
So i'm sittin on a fence
I'm just sittin' on a fence
You can say i got no sense
Trying to make up my mind
Really is too horrifying
So i'm sittin on a fence
The day can come when you get old and sick and tired of life
You just never realize
Maybe the choice you made wasn't really right
But you go out and you don't come back at night, so
i'm just sittin' on a fence
You can say i got no sense
Trying to make up my mind
Really is too horrifying
So i'm sittin on a fence

I met a gin soaked, bar-room queen in Memphis, 
She tried to take me upstairs for a ride. 
She had to heave me right across her shoulder 
'Cause I just can't seem to drink you off my mind. 

It's the honky tonk women 
Gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues. 

I laid a divorcee in New York City, 
I had to put up some kind of a fight. 
The lady then she covered me with roses, 
She blew my nose and then she blew my mind. 

It's the honky tonk women 
Gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues. 

(Yeah!) It's the honky tonk women. 
Gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues. 

(Yeah!) It's the honky tonk women. 
Gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues
