[Spoken Word: Mick Jagger]
This one's called "Live With Me"

[Intro: Charlie Watts]
One, Two, Three...

[Verse 1]
I got nasty habits
I take tea at three
Yes, and the meat I eat for dinner
It must be hung up for a week

My best friend, he shoots water rats
And feeds them to his geese
Don’t you think there's a place for you
In between the sheets?

[Chorus]
Come on now, honey
We can build a home for three
Come on now, honey
Don't you want to live with me?

[Verse 2]
And there’s a score of harebrained children
They're all locked in the nursery
They got earphone heads, they got dirty necks
They're so 20th century

Well they queue up for the bathroom
Around about 7:35
Don't you think we need a woman's touch
To make it come alive?

[Chorus]
You'd look good
Pram-pushing down the high street
Come on now, honey
Don't you want to live with me?

[Saxophone Solo]

[Verse 3]
The servants, they are so useless
The cook, she is a whore
Yes, the butler has a place for her
Behind the pantry door

The maid, she's French, she’s got no sense
She’s from the Crazy Horse
And when she strips, the chauffeur flips
The footman's eyes get crossed

[Chorus]
Dont you think there’s a place for us
Right across the street?
Don'cha think there's a place for you
In between the sheets?
Alright!

[Guitar Solo]

[Outro]
Come on now, sugar
You shouldn't be on your own
Come on now, baby
Don’t you want to live with me?

[Audience Applause]

[Spoken Word: Mick Jagger]
Thank you! Thank you very much! Thank you! How you doing out there tonight Toronto? We got this old tune for you. We'll do it slightly different for you this time. We'll see if you like this

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.
