when the whip comes down (live 1978) - the rolling stones lyrics
[instrumental intro]
[verse 1]
yeah, mama and papa told me
i was crazy to stay
i was a f-g in new york
i was g-y in l.a
so i saved my money
and i took the plane
wherever i go
they just treat me the same
[refrain]
when the whip comes down
when the whip comes down
when the whip comes down
when the whip comes down
[verse 2]
yeah, i go to 53rd street
and they spit in my face
but i’m learning the ropes
yeah, i’m learning the trade
the east river truckers
are churning with trash
i’ve got so much money
but i spend it so fast
[refrain]
when the whip comes down
when the whip comes down
when the whip comes down
when the whip comes down
when the sh-t hits the fan
i’ll be sitting on the can
when the whip comes down
oh yeah
[guitar solo 1]
[refrain]
when the whip comes down
when the whip comes down
when the whip comes down
when the whip comes down
when the sh-t hits the fan
i’ll be sitting on the can
when the whip comes down, yeah
[verse 3]
mr. rockefeller, he won’t give me no loan
and mr. brown, he don’t want me back home
but i love my mother and she loves her son
and somewhere [?]
[refrain]
when the whip comes down
when the whip comes down
when the whip comes down
when the whip comes down
when the sh-t hits the fan
i’ll be sitting on the can
when the whip comes down, yeah
[guitar solo 2]
[refrain]
when the whip comes down, yeah
when the whip comes down, yeah
when the whip comes down, yeah
when the whip comes down
and in this town
when the whip comes down
ah, yeah
[guitar solo 3]
[instrumental outro]
[audience applause]
[spoken word: mick jagger]
thank you! thank you! aw baby! yeah
