Lonely At The Top lyrics - Mick Jagger
Lonely
Lonely
Lonely
Lonely
God know's you're ambitious, see you push so hard
You want to get to the top of the heap from Sunset Boulevard
Oh, it leads small-town girls astray
Oh, it leads small-town girls astray
'Cause it's lonely, lonely at the top
Baby, it's hot!
It's lonely, lonely at the top
Baby, it's hot!
They're going to tear your soul away
Theater is deserted and the boards are bare
You're next up for the reading and you're feeling scared
Oh, but you really want the part so bad
Yeah, go on, show them how a star should act
Yeah, it's lonely, lonely at the top
Baby, it's hot
Yeah, it's lonely, lonely at the top
Baby, it's hot
They're going to tear your soul away
You could be a doctor, you could be a nurse
There's no time to rehearse
You work as a waitress, you clean up the bar
But soon you'll be noticed, you'll be a star
You get your nomination, your heart's beating fast
Yes, and the winner is you! You won the prize at last
Oh, it leads small-town girls astray
Oh, it leads small-town girls astray
'Cause it's lonely, lonely at the top
Yeah, baby, it's hot!
They're going to strip your soul away
It's lonely, lonely
It's lonely
You get hungry, you get thirsty
You know you get thirsty...
1/2 A Loaf lyrics - Mick Jagger
We got half a life, we got half a dream
We got half a love, we got half a scheme
Always sitting in the darkness, I'll wait for you
Nervous of the neighbors, I'd like a hotel room
Cause I'm indiscreet, can't keep quiet
Heaven I don't know how
I can't go on seeing you like this
Give that knife just one more twist
This affair is really going to break my heart
Living half a life is better than nothing, half a dream
You know I can't keep quiet 'cause I'm indiscreet
I guess half a loaf leaves me feeling hungry
Half a glass, half a dream, half a life
Heaven I don't know how!
I can't go on seeing you like this
Give that knife just one more little twist
This affair is really going to break my heart
Let's call our friends! Let's go hang out! Let's go out dancing!
Let's jump and shout! Let's go be seen! Let's dress up chic!
Show we're in love! Right on our street!
Let's go out trashy! Let's go act cheap!
What does it matter what other people think?
Step in the bright lights!
Let's go act wild!
I want to show that you're mine all mine
Here's to freezing in the doorways, here's to taking separate taxis
To our stolen conversations, we're never seen together
Half a dream, half a life, heaven I don't know how!
But I can't go on seeing you like this!
Give that knife just one more little twist
This affair is really going to break my heart
I can't go on seeing you like this!
I can't go on seeing you like this!
I can't go on seeing you like this!
I can't go on seeing you like this!
Give that knife just one more little twist
I can't go on seeing you like this!
I can't go on seeing you like this!
Give that knife just one more little twist...
Running Out Of Luck lyrics - Mick Jagger
Running out of luck, running out of speed
lucking for some loving, yes I got the need
Must have spent a fortune, but did I spend it well
If I wanted water, I got it from the well
Throwing out a whole life's low life's possessions
Throwing out a whole life's low life's possessions
Running out of heat, running out of gas
Running out of money, way too fast
Running out of liquor, there's nothing left to eat
Running out of luck, hungry for the meat
Running out of whole life's low life's possessions
Running out of luck, living with the loneliness
Running out of luck, heavy on the holiness
Take it easy with the emptiness
Running out of luck
Push it to the brink, you can take it to the edge
Fighting for survival, clinging to the ledge
You can strip me back to nothing, you never get me beat
Running out of luck, just running of heat
Running out of whole life's low life's possessions
Running out of whole life's low life's possessions
Running out of luck, living with the loneliness
Running out of luck, heavy on the holiness
Easy with the emptiness
Running out of luck
Turn The Girl Loose lyrics - Mick Jagger
Turn the girl loose! I won't hurt nobody
Turn the girl loose! Let her speak for herself
The hounds are on the track, they won't catch nobody
The hounds are on the track, I don't really care
Turn the girl loose! I won't touch nobody
Turn the girl loose! Let her out of your heart
She's calling out across the lacquered ocean
She's calling out - hear her cry for help?
Turn the girl loose! She won't touch nobody
She ain't your mama. She ain't your sister
Let her out of your heart
Turn the girl loose! I won't touch nobody
She ain't your lover. She ain't your brother
Let her out of jail
Just turn that girl loose! I won't hurt nobody. I swear!
Let her out, let her out
Let her out, let her out of jail
You're hanging out and you're sniffing the ground for some new blood
Don't ever get careless and don't leave the keys in the door
I found her crying and helpless, we made a quick getaway
She's here to tell you she don't want to see you no more
Turn that girl loose! I won't hurt nobody
Turn the girl loose! Let her speak for herself
Put her on the rack. Put her in seclusion
When you turned your back, I got the keys to her heart
She's calling out across the lacquered ocean
She's crying, crying out for help
Turn the girl loose!
Turn the girl loose!
Turn the girl loose!
Let her speak for herself
Let her speak for herself
Let her out of your heart
Hard Woman lyrics - Mick Jagger
She's a hard woman to please
And I thought about letting her know
She's a hard lady to leave
and I thought about letting her go
She's a tough lady to leave
But, I thought about it
She's a hard lady to please, yes she is
I gave her laughter, she wanted diamonds
I was romantic, she treated my cruelly
Where is the mercy, where is the love?
You see, passion has a funny way
Of burning down and running low
And suddenly it goes out
And you wonder where does it go
She's a hard woman to please
I've thought about letting her know
She's a hard lady to leave, yes she is
I gave her laughter, she wanted diamonds
She was unfaithful, treated me cruelly
Where is the mercy, where is the love?
I'm alone at last; something inside of me knows
I could have loved in vain
For a thousand years
I have to let her go
I've got to let her go
I've got to say goodbye
How can I say goodbye to my baby?
She's a tough cookie, hard lady
I've got to say goodbye
Alone at last and something inside of me knows
I could have loved in vain for a thousand years
I have to let her go
And time goes so fast and new love starts so slow
I could have loved in wain for a thousand years
I have to let her go
I've got to let her go
I've got to say goodbye
Hard woman to please, yes you are
Hard woman,tough lady,
I've got to, I've got to say goodbye.
How can I say goodbye to my baby?
How can I say goodbye to my baby?
So long honey.
Just Another Night lyrics - Mick Jagger
Give me just another night, just another night with you
Give me just another kiss, just before the dawn breaks through
'Cause I'm homesick, feel a little down and blue
And I'm hurting, hurting baby just like you
I was lonely 'til I saw you at the station
And I never thought you'd keep our rendezvous
Baby it's true.
Give me just another night, just another night with you
Give me just another kiss, just before the dawn breaks through
'Cause I'm hungry, hungry for your loving baby
And I'm thirsty, thirsty for your loving baby
And a one-day pass to heaven is so hard to find
And a one-night pass ain't really what I had in mind
I need your sweet tenderness, I need your soft caress
I know the day is coming, don't take away your loving
Can't you see that I'm human?
Just because you've seen my face, just because you know my name
I'm a stranger in this town, can't I have my ups and downs?
Can't you see that I'm human?
I get hungry, get thirsty
I get moody, I need attention
I need your love
I need your love
I want your love
Give me just another night, just another night with you
'Cause I'm freezing in this hundred-dollar hotel room
Don't make me leave you. No, don't you be so cruel
Lucky In Love lyrics - Mick Jagger
A betting fool, a gambling man
No sooner up you're down again
Mama said you won't get hurt
Don't play the cards, you won't get burned
But there's a place where I still win
But there's no money in this thing
The game of hearts puts me in spades
The only game I got it made
Oh, I'm lucky in love!
Yes, I've got the winning touch
Lucky in love!
Suddenly, I'm dangerous
I'm betting on a filly down at the track
A natural-born winner, that's a fact
A hundred yards from the winning post
The horse fell down, must seen a ghost
But there's a place where I still win
That is still my sure-fire thing
I will play the jack of spades
You play the queen, I'll play the knave
Oh, I'm lucky in love!
Yes, I've got the winning touch
Lucky in love!!
Suddenly, I'm dangerous
I know it's a mystery when the numbers come up
'Cause mathematics is Greek to me
But I'm lucky, I'm lucky, I'm lucky in love
Yeah, Las Vegas at night at the roulette wheel
Yeah, Monte Carlo try to cut a deal
Atlantic City, I lose at craps
Back in London try to win in back
And late at night I lay in bed
With a pistol to my head
Swear I couldn't take no more
And in she walks right through my door
Oh, I'm lucky in love!
When I think I've had enough
Lucky in love!
Yes, I've got the winning touch
Suddenly, I'm dangerous
Yes I'm lucky, Yes I'm lucky
Yes I'm lucky, yes I'm lucky
Yes I'm lucky, yes I'm lucky
Lucky with the ladies
Thank God for the ladies
Otherwise, I'd go, I'd go crazy
How about a line of credit
For say, ten thousand dollars?
Eighteen on the red
Put me, put me home to bed
Yes I'm lucky, yes I'm lucky
Yes I'm lucky, yes I'm lucky
Yes I'm lucky, yes I'm lucky
Lucky with the ladies
I'm sitting here with a full house
I just can't believe I'll lose out on this
Okay! Okay! Your ten thousand and ten thousand more
You want to raise me, you want to raise me? How about this?
Twenty thousand and twenty thousand more
Okay! You want to see me? Well I got, I got a full house
What's that? A royal flush?
Well, ain't that a bust, I'm broke!
Secrets lyrics - Mick Jagger
I heard a story, all about you
I heard the secrets, maybe they're true
I read the papers, I read the news
I hear the gossip, all about you
They say that you're really not so prim and prude
Behind it all you're rather rude
And really go for younger men
Italian types and lots of them
I can't believe it baby
Maybe it's true
Honey, honey, honey!
Do it for the money
I heard the stories
On saturday night, out in the back room
After one or two lies
Your name is mentioned
It gives me a fright
Dishonorable mention
Puts you in a new light
You've been going downtown slave romancing
Nasty, mean and fancy dancin
With your nose in plastic bags
People talk and tongues all wag
I can't believe it baby
I've been a fool
'Cause scales have just fell from my eyes
You can't keep up your disguise
Tell me about your adventures in living
I won't write a word of libel
Swear it on a thousand Bibles
But, I admit, I have got my misgivings
Maybe it's true
Honey, honey, honey!
Do it for the money
I read the papers, I read the news
I scan the columns for pictures of you
You with the husband, you with the mayor, youu with the kids
Now who are you kidding, who you kidding?
How can you dare?
While you are the mistress of a mafia man
Who's working for the Vatican
And all your money crisply ironed in off-shore banks
Your friends are kind
I can't believe it baby
Maybe it's true
Honey, honey, honey!
Do it for the money
Yeah, you've been a nasty girl
Yeah, you've been bad
You've been bad, you've been bad
You better come over here
And take your punishment
Bad, bad, bad! Bad, bad, bad!
Honey, honey, honey!
Do it for the money
She's The Boss lyrics - Mick Jagger
Stay home my child, stay home with me
Stay home my child, stay home with me
Oh please!
When I first met you, you looked so soft
Sso feminine, you looked so lost
What a fool I was
You called me manly, so masterful
You called me manly, so powerful
Was I ever gullible
She's the boss! She's the boss!
So I stay home, I stay home, stay hohe, stay home
It's all over, the party's over!
It's all over, I'll just shut my mouth
Now don't be cruel! Say you don't mean it
Now don't be cruel! Say you don't mean it
You the boss! Are you the boss?
She's the boss!
She's the boss in the office, she's the boss in the kitchen,
She's the boss in bed, she's the boss in my head
She's the boss! Okay!
You're the boss! Okay!
You're the boss! Okay! Okay! Okay!
I do what you say! Okay!
Now she's the guvernor, she's number one
From where I'm standing, I'm just a bum
Stay home, I stay home, stay home, stay home
It's all over, the party's over!
It's all over, the party's over!
The party's over!
Okay, I'll do what you say baby, it's okay
You want breakfast in bed? You got breakfast in bed
You want me to hold all calls? I'll hold all calls
You want me to fix your hair? I'll fix your hair
You want me to fix you dinner? I'll fix you dinner
You want me to stay up late? I'll stay up late
No problem, no problem
She's the boss! She's the boss!
It's all over, the party's over!
I'll keep my big mouth shut
Yes, she's the boss, she's the boss!
She's got the pants on, now she's the boss!
I stay home. What'd I say?
You want to what? Not right now baby
I've got a headache
You want it right now baby?
Well, I've got to wash my hair
Okay, okay! I'll do what you say, okay, okay, okay!
You're the boss, you're the boss
You've got the pants on, now you're the boss!
