[Mick Jagger:]
|
There was a calvary.
|
Down in new orleans.
|
And when the band would play.
|
Their feet went flying.
|
And underneath the ponds.
|
Bodies were swaying.
|
And in each other's arms.
|
Lovers were prayin.
|
You may the one for me.
|
Love is all around.
|
But what I've found I've been lookin for.
|
Searching for common ground.
