THE ROLLING STONES LYRICS / SONGTEKSTEN / SONGTEXTE

STREETS OF LOVE

You're awful bright
You're awful smart
I must admit
You broke my heart
The awful truth
Is really sad
I must admit
I was awful bad
While lovers laugh
And music plays
I stumble by
And hide my pain
Mmmm, the lamps are lit
The moon is gone
I think I've crossed
The Rubicon

And I, I, I, I, I, I, I
Walk the streets of love
And they're full of tears

And I, I, I, I, I, I, I
Walked the streets of love
And they are full of fears

While music pumps
From passing cars
A couple watch me from a bar
A band just played
The wedding march
And the corner store
Mends broken hearts
And a woman asks me for a dance
Oooooh, it's free of charge
Just one more chance

OOhh, but I, I, I, I, I, I, I
Walk the streets of love
And they're full of tears
And I, I, I, I, I, I, I
Walk the streets of love
for a thousand years... Oh...tell me now...Ahh...

I walk the streets of love, and they're drenched with tears, ohhh...

You had the moves
You had the cards
I must admit
You were awful smart
The awful truth
Is awful sad
I must admit
I was awful bad

And I, I, I, I, I, I, I
Walk the streets of love
And they're drenched in tears

And I, I, I, I, I, I, I
I walk the streets of love
For a thousand years

And I, I, I, I, I, I, I
Walk the streets of love
And they're drenched with tears


SYMPATHY FOR THE DEVIL

Please allow me to introduce myself
I'm a man of wealth and taste
I've been around for a long, long year
Stole many a man's soul and faith

And I was 'round when Jesus Christ
Had his moment of doubt and pain
Made damn sure that Pilate
Washed his hands and sealed his fate

Pleased to meet you
Hope you guess my name
But what's puzzling you
Is the nature of my game

I stuck around St. Petersburg
When I saw it was a time for a change
Killed the czar and his ministers
Anastasia screamed in vain

I rode a tank
Held a general's rank
When the blitzkrieg raged
And the bodies stank

Pleased to meet you
Hope you guess my name, oh yeah
Ah, what's puzzling you
Is the nature of my game, oh yeah
(woo woo, woo woo)

I watched with glee
While your kings and queens
Fought for ten decades
For the gods they made
(woo woo, woo woo)

I shouted out,
"Who killed the Kennedys?"
When after all
It was you and me
(who who, who who)

Let me please introduce myself
I'm a man of wealth and taste
And I laid traps for troubadours
Who get killed before they reached Bombay
(woo woo, who who)

Pleased to meet you
Hope you guessed my name, oh yeah
(who who)
But what's puzzling you
Is the nature of my game, oh yeah, get down, baby (who who, who who)

Pleased to meet you
Hope you guessed my name, oh yeah
But what's confusing you
Is just the nature of my game
(woo woo, who who)

Just as every cop is a criminal
And all the sinners saints
As heads is tails
Just call me Lucifer
'Cause I'm in need of some restraint
(who who, who who)

So if you meet me
Have some courtesy
Have some sympathy, and some taste
(woo woo)
Use all your well-learned politesse
Or I'll lay your soul to waste, um yeah
(woo woo, woo woo)

Pleased to meet you
Hope you guessed my name, um yeah
(who who)
But what's puzzling you
Is the nature of my game, um mean it, get down
(woo woo, woo woo)

Woo, who
Oh yeah, get on down
Oh yeah
Oh yeah!
(woo woo)

Tell me baby, what's my name
Tell me honey, can ya guess my name
Tell me baby, what's my name
I tell you one time, you're to blame

Oh, who
woo, woo
Woo, who
Woo, woo
Woo, who, who
Woo, who, who
Oh, yeah

What's my name
Tell me, baby, what's my name
Tell me, sweetie, what's my name

Woo, who, who
Woo, who, who
Woo, who, who
Woo, who, who
Woo, who, who
Woo, who, who
Oh, yeah
Woo woo
Woo woo


PAINT IT BLACK

I see a red door and I want it painted black.
No colors anymore I want them to turn black.

I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes.
I have to turn my head until my darkness goes.
I see a line of cars and they're all painted black.
With flowers and my love, both never to come back.
I see people turn their heads and quickly look away.
Like a newborn baby it just happens ev'ryday.

I look inside myself and see my heart is black.
I see my red door and it has been painted black.
Maybe then I'll fade away and not have to face the facts.
It's not easy facing up when your whole world is black.
No more will my green sea go turn a deeper blue.
I could not forsee this thing happening to you.
If I look hard enough into the setting sun.
My love will laugh with me before the morning comes.

I see a red door and I want it painted black.
No colors anymore I want them to turn black.
I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes.
I have to turn my head until my darkness goes.

Hmm, hmm, hmm...

I wanna see it painted black, painted black.
Black as night, black as coal.
I wanna see the sun, blotted out from the sky.
I wanna see it painted, painted, painted, painted black.
Yeah.


ANGIE

Oh, Angie, Oh, Angie, when will those dark clouds disappear.
Angie, Angie, where will it lead us from here.
With no loving in our souls and no money in our coats.
You can't say we're satisfied.
But Angie, Angie, you can't say we never tried.

Angie, you're beautiful, but ain't it time we said goodbye.
Angie, I still love you, remember all those nights we cried.

All the dreams we held so close seemed to all go up in smoke.
Let me whisper in your ear.
Angie, Angie, where will it lead us from here.
Oh, Angie, don't you weep, all your kisses still taste sweet.
I hate that sadness in your eyes.
But Angie, Angie, ain't it time we said goodbye.

With no loving in our souls and no money in our coats.
You can't say we're satisfied.
But angie, I still love you baby, ev'rywhere I look I see your eyes.
There ain't a woman that comes close to you, come on baby, dry your eyes.


(I can't get no)SATISFACTION

I can't get no satisfaction, I can't get no satisfaction.
'Cause I try and I try and I try and I try.
I can't get no, I can't get no.

When I'm drivin' in my car, and the man come on the radio.
He's tellin' me more and more about some useless information.
Supposed to fire my imagination.

I can't get no. Oh, no, no, no. Hey, hey, hey.
That's what I say.
I can't get no satisfaction, I can't get no satisfaction.
'Cause I try and I try and I try and I try.
I can't get no, I can't get no.

When I'm watchin' my TV and a man comes on and tell me.
How white my shirts can be.
But, he can't be a man 'cause he doesn't smoke.
The same cigarettes as me.

I can't get no. Oh, no, no, no. Hey, hey, hey.
That's what I say.
I can't get no satisfaction, I can't get no satisfaction.
'Cause I try and I try and I try and I try.
I can't get no, I can't get no.

When I'm ridin' round the world, and I'm doin' this and I'm signin' that.
And I'm tryin' to make some girl, who tells me.
Baby, better come back maybe next week.
'Cause you see I'm on a losing streak.

I can't get no. Oh, no, no, no. Hey, hey, hey.
That's what I say. I can't get no, I can't get no.
I can't get no satisfaction, no satisfaction.
No satisfaction, no satisfaction.


ANYBODY SEEN MY BABY?

She confessed her love to me.
Then she vanished on the breeze.
Trying to hold on to that.
Was just impossible.
Closer to ethereal.
With a kind of down to earth flavor.

Close my eyes.
It's three in the afternoon.
Then I realize.
That she's really gone for good.

Anybody seen my baby.
Anybody seen her around.
Love has gone and made me blind.
I've looked but I just can't find.
She has gotten lost in the crowd.

I was flippin' magazines.
In that place on Mercer Street.
When I thought I spotted her.

Getting on a motor bike.
Looking rather lady like.
Didn't she just give me a wave?

Salty tears.
It's three in the afternoon.
Has she disappeared.
Is she really gone for good.

Anybody seen my baby.
Anybody seen her around.
If I just close my eyes.
I reach out and touch the prize.
Anybody seen her around.

[We came to rock for Brooklyn, and Queens, and Manhatten, and the.
Bronx, and Staten Island, I can't forget New Jersey, and Long Island and all over the world....we came to rock for everybody a like this].

Anybody seen my baby.
Anybody seen her around.
If I just close my eyes.
I reach out and touch the prize.
Anybody seen her around.

Lost, lost and never found.
I must have called her a thousand times.
Sometimes I think she's just in my imagination.

Lost in the crowd.


START ME UP

If you start me upIf you start me up.
If you start me up I'll never stop.
If you start me up.
If you start me up I'll never stop.
I've been running hot.
You got me ticking gonna blow my top.
If you start me up.
If you start me up I'll never stop.

You make a grown man cry.
Spread out the oil, the gasoline.
I walk smooth, ride in a mean, mean machine.
Start it up.

If you start it up.
Kick on the starter give it all you got, you got, you got.
I can't compete with the riders in the other heats.
If you rough it up.
If you like it you can slide it up, slide it up.

Don't make a grown man cry.
My eyes dilate, my lips go green.
My hands are greasy.
She's a mean, mean machine.
Start it up.

If start me up.
Give it all you got.
You got to never, never, never stop.
Never, never.
Slide it up.

You make a grown man cry.
Ride like the wind at double speed.
I'll take you places that you've never, never seen.
Start it up.
Love the day when we will never stop, never stop.
Never stop, never stop.
Tough me up.
Never stop, never stop, never stop.

You, you, you make a grown man cry.
You, you make a dead man cum.
You, you make a dead man cum.
