Parachute Woman
Parachute woman, land on me tonight
Parachute woman, land on me tonight
I'll break big in New Orleans
And I'll overspill in Caroline
Parachute woman, join me for a ride
Parachute woman, join me for a ride
I'll make my blow in Dallas
And get hot again in half the time
Solo
Parachute woman, will you blow me out?
Parachute woman, will you blow me out?
Well, my heavy throbbers itchin'
Just to lay a solorhy rhythm down
(just keep repeating until fade)
No Expectations
A little tip () means A quick
()
Take me to the station
and put me on a train
I've got no expectations
()
to pass through here again
Once I was a rich man
and now I am so poor
But never in my sweet, short life
()
have I felt like this before
Your heart is like a diamond,
you throw your pearls at swine
And as I watch you leaving me,
()
you pack my peace of mind
Bridge
()
Our love was like the water
that splashes on a stone
Our love was like our music,
()
it's here and then it's gone
So take me to the airport
and put me on a plane
I've got no expectations
()
to pass through here again

You Can't Always Get What You Want
I saw her today at a reception
A glass of wine in her hand
I knew she would meet her connection
At her feet was her footloose man
No, you can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
And if you try sometime you find
You get what you need
I went down to the Chelsea drugstore
To get your prescription filled
I was standing in line with Mr. Jimmy
And man, did he look pretty ill
We decided that we would have a soda
My favorite flavor, cherry red
I sung my song to Mr. Jimmy
Yeah, and he said one word to me, and that was "dead"
I said to him
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
But if you try sometimes you just might find
You get what you need
Solo
I saw her today at the reception
In her glass was a bleeding man
She was practiced at the art of deception
Well I could tell by her blood-stained hands
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
But if you try sometimes you just might find
You just might find You get what you need
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
But if you try sometimes you just might find
You just might find You get what you need, ah yes...
Sympathy for the Devil
Please allow me to introduce myself Im a man of wealth and taste
Ive been around for a long, long year Stole many a mans soul and faith
And I was round when jesus christ Had his moment of doubt and pain
Made damn sure that pilate Washed his hands and sealed his fate
Pleased to meet you Hope you guess my name
But whats puzzling you Is the nature of my game
I stuck around st. petersburg When I saw it was a time for a change
Killed the czar and his ministers Anastasia screamed in vain
I rode a tank Held a generals rank When the blitzkrieg raged And the bodies
stank
Pleased to meet you Hope you guess my name
Ah, whats puzzling you Is the nature of my game
I watched with glee While your kings and queens Fought for ten decades For
the gods they made
I shouted out, Who killed the kennedys? When after all It was you and me
Let me please introduce myself Im a man of wealth and taste
And I laid traps for troubadours Who get killed before they reached bombay
Pleased to meet you Hope you guessed my name
But whats puzzling you Is the nature of my game
Solo
Pleased to meet you Hope you guessed my name
But whats confusing you Is just the nature of my game
Just as every cop is a criminal And all the sinners saints
As heads is tails Just call me lucifer cause Im in need of some restraint
So if you meet me Have some courtesy Have some sympathy, and some taste
Use all your well-learned politesse Or Ill lay your soul to waste
Pleased to meet you Hope you guessed my name
But whats puzzling you Is the nature of my game
(repeat until end)
Salt of The Earth
Lets drink to the hard working people
Lets drink to the lowly of birth
Raise your glass to the good and the evil
Lets drink to the salt of the earth
Say a prayer for the common foot soldier
Spare a thought for his back breaking work
Say a prayer for his wife and his children
Who burn the fires and who still till the earth
And when I search a faceless crowd
A swirling mass of gray and Black and white
They dont look real to me
In fact, they look so strange
Raise your glass to the hard working people
Lets drink to the uncounted heads
Lets think of the wavering millions
Who need leaders but get gamblers instead
Spare a thought for the stay-at-home voter
His empty eyes gaze at strange beauty shows
And a parade of the gray suited grafters
A choice of cancer or polio
And when I look in the faceless crowd
A swirling mass of grays and Black and white
They dont look real to me
Or dont they look so strange
Lets drink to the hard working people
Lets think of the lowly of birth
Spare a thought for the rag taggy people
Lets drink to the salt of the earth
Lets drink to the hard working people
Lets drink to the salt of the earth
Lets drink to the two thousand million
Lets think of the humble of birth
The End
