(Mick Jagger)
|
You used to be my party doll
|
But now you say the party's over
|
You used to love to honky tonk
|
But now the honky tonkin's over
|
Now my life is a bitter thing my sweet
|
Now life is a mystery to me
|
Love's pain I ain't buying
|
Love's strange but I'll keep trying
|
You used to be my party doll
|
But now you to live in clover
|
You used to be my number one
|
But now those salad days are over
|
Times change but the fascination stays
|
Love wins but the passion just fades
|
I'll drink to those dancin' days
|
I'll drink to your crazy ways
|
Through a whisky haze
|
Face the music, face the truth
|
Chases that fleet sweet bird of youth
|
Grow up sweetly, grow up strong
|
Hear the heartbeat in my song
|
Now my life is a bitter thing my sweet
|
Now life is a mystery to me
|
Love's pain I ain't buying
|
Love's strange but I'll keep trying
|
You used to be my party doll
|
But now you say the party's over
|
You used to love to honky tonk
|
But now the honky tonkin's over
|
You used to be my number one
|
But now you've vanished in the ozone
