Saw you stretched out in room ten-o-nine
(m. jagger/k. richards)
With a smile on your face

And a tear right in your eye
Saw you stretched out in room ten o nine
Couldn’t see to get a line on you
With a smile on your face and a tear right in your eye.
My sweet honey love
Oh, couldn’t see to get a line on you, my sweet honey love.
Berber jew’lry jangling down the street
Berber jew’lry jangling down the street,
Make you shut your eyes at ev’ry woman that you meet
Making bloodshot eyes at ev’ry woman that you meet.
Couldn not seem to get a high on you
Could not seem to get a high on you, my sweet honey love.
My sweet honey love

May the good lord shine a light on you,
May the good Lord shine a light on you
Make every song (you sing) your favorite tune.
Make every song your favourite tune
May the good lord shine a light on you,
May the good Lord shine a light on you
Warm like the evening sun.
Warm like the evening sun

When you’re drunk in the alley, baby, with your clothes all torn
Well, you’re drunk in the alley, baby
And your late night friends leave you in the cold gray dawn.
With your clothes all torn
Just seemed too many flies on you, i just can’t brush them off.
And your late night friends
Angels beating all their wings in time,
Leave you in the cold grey dawn
With smiles on their faces and a gleam right in their eyes.
Just seemed too many flies on you
Whoa, thought i heard one sigh for you,
I just can’t brush them off
Come on up, come on up, now, come on up now.

Angels beating all their wings in time
May the good lord shine a light on you,
With smiles on their faces
Make every song you sing your favorite tune.
And a gleam right in their eyes
May the good lord shine a light on you,
Thought I heard one sigh for you
Warm like the evening sun.
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 favourite tune
May the good Lord shine a light on you
Warm like the evening sun
