Sympathy For The Devil lyrics

Artist  : The Rolling Stones 
Song : Sympathy For The Devil
 


Please allow me to introduce myself, I'm a man of
wealth and taste
I've been around for a long,
long year, Stole many a man's 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

CHORUS: Pleased to meet you Hope you
guess my name
But what's puzzling you Is the
nature of my game

I stuck around St.
Petersberg, 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 general's rank, When the Blitzkrieg raged, And
the bodies stank

CHORUS

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, I'm a man of wealth and
taste
And I laid traps for troubadors, Who get
killed before they reached
Bombay

CHORUS

Just as every cop is
a criminal, And all the sinners Saints
As
heads is tails, Just call me Lucifer, 'Cause I'm
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
I'll lay your soul to waste, um
yeah

CHORUS

Woo, who, Oh yeah, get
on down, Oh yeah, Oh yeah!
Tell me baby,
what's my name
Tell me honey, baby guess my
name
Tell me baby, what's my name
Tell you
one time, you're to blame
Ooo, who, Ooo, who,
Ooo, who, Ooo, who, who, Ooo, who, who, Ooo, who,
who, Ooo, who, who
What's my name
Tell me,
baby, what's my name
Tell me, sweetie, what's
my name
Ooo, who, who Ooo, who, Ooo, who, Ooo,
who, Ooo, who, who, Ooo, who, who, Ooo, who,
who,
