The Rolling Stones

[Intro]
On trumpet, Jim Price
On saxophone and tequila, Bobby Keys
...
On the piano, Nicky Hopkins

This is the last gig on this tour, so
What was I going to tell to you-
We want you to open your lungs, your lungs with us on this one, please
Woo!

[Verse 1]
I met a gin-soaked barroom queen in Memphis
She tried to take me upstairs for a ride
Yes! She had to heave me right across her shoulder
I just don't seem to drink you off my mind
That's the honky tonk women

[Chorus]
It's the honky tonk women
Gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues

[Verse 2]
I laid a divorcee in New York City
I tried to put up some kind of a fight, yeah!
The lady, wеll, she covered mе in roses
She blew my nose, and then she blew my mind
Oh yeah, come on, sing it with me

[Chorus]
It's the honky tonk women
They gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues
Woo!
It's the honky tonk, honky tonk women, yeah
They gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues
It's the honky tonk, honky tonk women, yes
They gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues

Wooee! All right! All right all right all right all right...

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.
