(mick jagger / keith richards)

Everywhere i hear the sound
Of marching, charging feet boy
’cause the summer’s here
And the time is right for
Fighting in the street boy

Hey think the time is right
For a palace revolution
Where i live the game to play
Is just to compromise my solution

What can a poor boy do
Except to sing for a rock ‘n’ roll band
’cause you see bein’ london town
There’s just no other place
For a street fighting man

Hey did i tell you that my name
Was called disturbance
And i’ll shout and scream
And i’ll kill the king and
I’ll rail at all his servants

What can a poor boy do
Except to sing for a rock ‘n’ roll band
’cause you see bein’ london town
There’s just no place
For a street fighting man

Everywhere i hear the sound
Of marching, charging feet boy
’cause the summer’s here
And the time is right for
Fighting in the street boy

What can a poor boy do
Except to sing for a rock ‘n’ roll band
’cause you see bein’ london town
There’s just no other place
For a street fighting man
