[Spoken Word: Mick Jagger]
Let me go! Please let me go!

[Verse 1]
You're going to get it straight from the shoulder
Can’t you see the party's over
Hey, let me go

[Verse 2]
I tried giving you the velvet gloves
I tried giving you the knockout punch
Hey, let me go
Let me go
Let me go
Let me go
Let me go

[Verse 3]
I turned my back to [?]
Dear God, [?]
Hey, she don't wan to let it go

[Verse 4]
The baddest girl that I call time
[?]
Hey, let it go

[Chorus]
Let me go
Let me go
Hey! Sugar would you let me go?
No, no
Let me go
Hey! Baby would you let me go?

[Bridge]
I find it hard to be cruel
I find it hard to be cruel
With a smile, don’t you?
You'll never find that perfect love
That you dream about, that you read about

[Verse 5]
You're gonna get it straight from the shoulder
Can't you see the party's over
Hey, let me go
Let me go

[Verse 2]
I tried giving you the velvet gloves
I tried giving you the knockout punch
Hey, let me go
Let me go
Let me go
Let me go
Let me go

[Guitar Solo]

[Saxophone Solo]

[Outro]
Baby won't you let me go
Let me go
Baby won't you let me go
Let me go
Let me go
Let me go
Let, let, let (let me go)

[Audience Applause]

[Spoken Word: Mick Jagger]
Thank you! Thank you! Yeah, we're gonna do an old song for you we recorded when we were just real small

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.
