[Verse 1: Keith Richards]
Well I never kept a dollar past sunset
It always burned a hole in my pants
Never made a school mama happy
Never blew a second chance

[Chorus: Mick Jagger]
I need a love to keep me happy
I need a love to keep me happy
Baby, baby keep me happy

[Verse 2: Keith Richards]
Always took candy from strangers
Didn't wanna get me no trade
Never want to be like papa
Working for the boss every night and day

[Chorus: Keith Richards & Mick Jagger]
I need a love to keep me happy
I need a love to keep me happy
Baby, baby keep me happy
Baby, baby keep me happy

[Guitar Solo 1]

[Chorus: Keith Richards & Mick Jagger]
I need a love to keep me happy
I need a love to keep me happy
Baby, baby keep me happy
Baby, baby keep me happy

[Verse 3: Keith Richards]
Never got a flash out of cocktails
When I got some flesh off the bone
Never got a lift out of Lear jets
When I can fly way back home

[Chorus: Keith Richards & Mick Jagger]
I need a love to keep me happy
I need a love to keep me happy
Baby, baby, yeah she keeps me happy

[Guitar Solo 2]

[Chorus: Keith Richards & Mick Jagger]
I need a love to keep me happy
I need a love to keep me happy
I need a love, I need a love to keep me happy, baby

[Bridge: Keith Richards & Mick Jagger]
Oh won't you keep me happy
Baby, won't you keep me happy
Yeah, won't you keep me happy
Baby, won't you keep me happy

[Guitar Solo 3]

[Spoken Word: Mick Jagger]
Alright

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.
