Stones

ANGIE Tuesday kept singing
You are UNDER MY THUMB
YOU CAN'T ALWAYS GET WHAT YOU WANT

Her sister RUBY TUESDAY
Tended to WILD HORSES
With three HONKY TONK WOMEN

It was a normal morning
Until Bill, better known
TUMBLIN DICE rode home at speed

Bill had rode with a great news-
The ROLLING STONES band was
visiting Neighboring town

All folks rushed out and out
Town was empty in jiffy
Like someone had PAINT IT BLACK

Bill chuckled, rested real nice
For once in all calmness
Without Angie or her song
