[Verse 1]
Papa says yes, Mama says no
Make up you mind 'cause I gotta go
I'm gonna raise hell at the Union Hall
Drive myself right over the wall

[Chorus]
Rip this joint, going to get down low
Start my starter, going to stop the show
Roll this joint, going to get down low
Round and round and round we go
Oh, yeah!
Oh, yeah!

[Verse 2]
Mister President, Mister Immigration Man
Let me in, sweetie, to this fair land
I'm Tampa bound and Memphis too
Short Fat Fanny is on the loose

Rip this joint, going to get down low
Move right across into Buffalo
Dick and Pat in ole D.C.,
Well they're going to hold some shit for me

Ying yang, you're my thing
Oh, now, baby, won't you hear me sing
Flip Flop, fit to drop
Come on baby, won't you let it rock?

[Sax solo]
Oh, yeah! Oh, yeah!

From San Josе down to Santa Fe
Kiss me quick, baby, won'tcha make my day?
Down to Nеw Orleans with the Dixie Dean
Across to Dallas, Texas with the Butter Queen

[Chorus]
Rip this joint, gonna rip yours too
Some brand new steps and some weight to lose
Gonna roll this joint, gonna get down low
Round and round and round we'll go

[Outro]
Wham, bam, Birmingham
Alabama don't give a shit
Little Rock
Ah, let it rock

[Guitar solo]

?
Whoo
All right all right all right yeah

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.
