[Chorus 1]
Baby, please don't go
Baby, please don't go
Baby, please don't go, down to New Orleans
You know I love you so

[Chorus]
Before I be your dog
Before I be your dog
Before I be your dog
I get you way'd out here, and let you walk alone
Turn your lamp down low
Turn your lamp down low
Turn your lamp down low
I beg you all night long, baby, please don't go
Come here son!

[Harmonica Solo 1]

[Bridge]
You brought me way down here
You brought me way down here
You brought me way down here
About to Rolling Forks, you treat me like a dog

[Chorus 3]
You know your man down gone
You know your man down gone
You know your man down gone
To the country farm, with all the shackles on

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus 4]
You brought me way down here
You brought me way down here
You brought me way down here
'Bout to Rolling Forks, you treat me like a dog

Ladies and gentlemen. This time of the evening, things haven't gotten real where they're supposed to be. I've not come just to get me a little something to drink. Take your time. No rushing

Oh Baby, please don't go, down to New Orleans
You know I love you so

[Chorus]
Before I be your dog
Before I be your dog
Before I be your dog
I get you way'd out here, and let you walk alone
Turn your lamp down low
Turn your lamp down low
Turn your lamp down low
I beg you all night long, baby, please don't go
Mick Jagger!
Mick Jagger!
Let's bring Mick Jagger up here!

[Audience Applause]

[Spoken Word: Muddy Waters]
Ladies and gentleman, I'd like to sing one more before I bring any more guests. But I'd like to get all the Stones up here

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.
