Talk about the midnight rambler
Everybody got to go
Yeah! Talkin' about the midnight gambler
Did you see him jump the garden wall?
Sighin' down the wind so sadly
Listen, and you'll hear him moan
Talkin' about the midnight gambler
Everybody got to go

Yeah, talkin' about the midnight gambler
The one you never seen before
Talkin' about the midnight rambler
Did you see him shut the garden door?
He don't give you a hoot of a warning
Dressed up in a black cat cloak
He don't go in the light of the morning
He split the time the cock'rel crow

Yea, baby

Did you talk about the midnight rambler?
Honey, it's no rock 'n' roll show
I'm talkin' about the midnight rambler
Yeah, everybody got to go

Oh yea

Well, you heard about the Boston
Well now honey, it’s not one of those
I'm talkin' about the midnight
Did you see me shut the bedroom door?
I'm called the hit-and-run raper in anger
Or just the knife-sharpened tippie-toes
Or just the shoot 'em dead, brainbell jangler
Everybody got to go

If you ever see the midnight rambler
And he's coming down your marble hall
And he's pouncing like proud black panther
Yeah, you can say I, I told you so
Don't you listen for the midnight rambler
Play it easy, easy, as you go
I'm gonna smash down all your plate glass windows
Put my fist through your steel-plated door
Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Woo! ? Yeah, baby! Woo!

Woo! Woo!
Yeah! Well I'm talkin' about the midnight rambler
Everybody got to go
Well, I'm talking about the midnight rambler
Did you see me shut the bedroom door?
And if you ever catch the midnight rambler
I'll steal your mistress from under your nose
I'll go easy with your cold fanged anger
I'll stick my knife right down your throat
Woo! Yeah! Yeah! Yes! Oh yes!
Oh, you made me feel so good

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.
