[Verse 1]
What you say, girl?
You see, what is wrong?
You must be joking
You was led along

[Chorus]
But the butler, the baker
The laughing cavalier
Will tell me now
Who's been sleeping here

I want to know
Tell me, baby, who's been sleeping...

[Verse 2]
What you say, girl?
Who'd you see that night?
I, I was doing
Doing something right

[Chorus]
Oh the soldier, the sailor
And then there's the three musketeers
Yes, they'll tell me now
Who's been sleeping here

Did I ever tell you I want to know?
Hey baby, who's been sleeping...

[Verse 3]
Don't you look like
Like a Goldilocks?
There must be somewhere
Somewhere you can stop

[Chorus]
Yes, there's the noseless old newsboy
The old British brigadier
But he'll tell me now
Who's been sleeping here

[Verse 4]
Who's been eating
Eating off my plate?
Who will tell me?
Who'll investigate?

[Chorus]
There's the sergeants, the soldiers
The cruel old grenadier
But they'll tell me now
Who's been sleeping here

[Outro]
Cause I want to know
Who's been sleeping right here
Was it your mummy, your daddy?
Who's been sleeping here?
Was it your auntie, your uncle?
Who's been sleeping here?
Was it your boyfriend, your girlfriend?
Who's been sleeping here?
All right
Who's been sleeping here?

The Rolling Stones

Formed in London in 1962, The Rolling Stones led the “British Invasion” along with The Beatles and were so successful their influence can be seen in arguably every rock ‘n’ roll band that followed.

Three of the current members have been there since the band’s singer Mick Jagger and guitarist Keith Richards, who write the majority of the band’s catalogue and also produced some albums as The Glimmer Twins; and drummer Charlie Watts. The fourth official member is guitarist Ronnie Wood, who has been there since 1975 (the keyboardist and bassist who play in studio and live are usually not listed). The Stones have released more than 20 studio albums, and even as age caught up on them, continued to be a huge attraction on the live circuit, with big stadium tours continuing through the 1990s, 2000s and into the 2010s.
