(M. Jagger/K. Richards)
|
Saw you stretched out in Room Ten O Nine
|
With a smile on your face and a tear right in your eye.
|
Oh, couldn't see to get a line on you, my sweet honey love.
|
Berber jew'lry jangling down the street,
|
Make you shut your eyes at ev'ry woman that you meet.
|
Could not seem 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.
|
When you're drunk in the alley, baby, with your clothes all torn
|
And your late night friends leave you in the cold gray dawn.
|
Just seemed too many flies on you, I just can't brush them off.
|
Angels beating all their wings in time,
|
With smiles on their faces and a gleam right in their eyes.
|
Whoa, thought I heard on sigh for you,
|
Come on up, come on up, now, come on up now.
|
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.(x2)
