Street Fighting Man

(Written by M.Jagger and K.Richards)


Everywhere I hear the sound of marching, charging feet, boy
'Cause summer's here and the time is right for fighting in the street, boy
Tell me what can a poor boy do?
Except to sing for a rock 'n' roll band
'Cause in this sleepy L.A. town
There's just no place for a street fighting man
Street fighting man

Do you think the time is right for a palace revolution?
Where I live the game to play is compromise solution
Well, then what can a poor boy do?
Except sing for a rock 'n' roll band
'Cause in sleepy L.A. town
There's no place for a street fighting man
Street fighting man

Well what else can a poor boy do? (X4)

Hey! My name is called disturbance
I'll shout and scream, I'll kill the king, I'll rail at all his servants
Well, what can a poor boy do?
Except to sing for a rock 'n' roll band
In this sleepy L.A. town
There's just no place for a street fighting man
For a street fighting man!
