[Verse]
Who's that woman on your arm?
All dressed up to do you harm
And I'm hip to what she'll do
Give her just about a month or two

Bit off more than I can chew
And I knew, yeah I knew what it was leading to
Some things, well, I can't refuse
One of them, one of them the bedroom blues

She delivers right on time
I can't resist a corny line
But take the shine right off your shoes, yeah right off your shoes
Carryin', carryin' the bedroom blues

Oh yeah, in the bar you're getting drunk
Oh yeah oh yeah, I ain’t in love, I ain’t in lust oh no no no
Hide the switch and shut the light, won't you shut it?
Let it all come down tonight

Maybe your friends think I'm just a stranger
Your face I'll never see no more
Let it all come down tonight
Keep those tears hid out of sight

Let it loose, yeah let it loose, let it loose
Let it loose, let it all come down
Let it loose, let it loose, yeah, yeah
Let it loose, let it all come down
Let it loose, let it all come down
Let it loose, let it all come down...

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.
