[Verse 1]
One time, you were my baby chicken
Now you've grown into a fox
And once upon a time, I was your little rooster
Now am I just one of your cocks?

[Chorus]
It's rough justice, oh yeah
You're gonna have to trust me
It's rough justice
But you know I'll never break your heart

[Verse 2]
So put your lips to my hips, baby
And tell me what's on your mind
I know you still got that animal attraction for me
It's been a long, long time

[Chorus]
It's rough justice, oh yeah
Oh, we're never gonna dust it
It's rough justice
But you know I'll never break your heart
You're feeling loose and lusty
So if you really want me, yeah
It's rough justice
And you know I'll never break your heart

[Chorus]
It's rough justice, oh yeah
You think you're real, it's just me
It's rough justice
But you know I'll never break your heart

[Verse 4]
First time I saw, baby
You were springing like a young gazelle
And next thing I know, we're way down the road
And you're flying like a bat out of hell

[Chorus]
It's rough justice, oh yeah
You'll have to, to discuss it
You're gonna have to trust me
But you know I'll never break your heart
I give you my position
Don't want no opposition
It's rough justice
But you know I'll never break your heart

[Outro]
Whoa
Now come on, babe
Whoa, now, now
Come on, baby, woo
Come on, baby, now

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.
