[Intro]
Hey oh, yeah

[Verse 1]
Yeah, heard the diesel drumming all down the line
Yeah, heard the wires a humming all down the line
Yeah, hear the women sighing all down the line
Yeah, watch the children crying all down the line

[Chorus]
We'll be watching out for trouble, yeah
And we keep the motor running, yeah
Well, you can’t say yes and you can't say no
Just be right there when the whistle blows
She's a sanctified girl with a sanctified mind to help me now

[Verse 2]
Yeah, hear the women sighing all down the line
Yeah, watch the children crying all down the line

[Chorus]
We’ll be watching out for trouble, yeah
And we keep the motor running, yeah
Well, you can't say yes and you can't say no
Just be right there when the whistle blows
She's a sanctified girl with a sanctified mind to help me now
Get him baby

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]
We'll be watching out for trouble, yeah
And we keep the motor running, yeah
Need a shot of salvation, baby, once in a while
Yeah, yeah
Oh yeah
Oh yeah

[Outro]
Won't you be my little baby for a while?
Won't you be my little baby for a while?
Won't you be my little baby for a while?
You know
Oh yeah

[Audience Applause]

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.
