Well I haven't seen your face for years
I thought you had just disappeared
Don't you worry, what are friends for?

You can call me up most anytime
I never go to bed til five
Don't be a stranger
Just knock on my door

I heard you're in the south of Spain
Never coming back again

Don't be a stranger
A stranger no more
Don't be a stranger
Just knock on my door

Well the key is hanging on the chain
Are you still drinkin' the same champagne
While I been waiting on the fifteenth floor?

Have a glass while I light the fire
You still have those hungry eyes
Don't be a stranger
Just knock on my door

You can tell me about your escapades
The story of your lost decade

Don't be a stranger
A stranger no more
Don't be a stranger
Just knock on my door

(Hey baby)

Do you still drive the young men wild?
You were all so very versatile
I need your lovin' like never before

Well you walk with the same old swatch
I still got the same old couch
You see the painting that you always adored

And I love you sittin' in my chair
Come closer let me smell your hair

Don't be a stranger
A stranger no more
Don't be a stranger
Just knock on my door

Don't be a stranger
Don't be a stranger
Don't be a stranger
Don't be a stranger
Don't be a stranger
Don't be a stranger

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.
