Rough and Twisted versuri

Versuri The Rolling Stones – Rough and Twisted lyrics

Yeah, why don’t you drive me
Down that rough and twisted road
Why don’t you guide me
Cause I don’t know which way to go

Promise to take me
There to where the water glows
Somewhere, somewhere down to Puerto Rico
Where the tide just ebbs and flows

Flash me all your jewelery
Poetry and friends
Promise me a dance like Nijinsky
Nothing, nothing, nothing but a false pretense

Yeah, all you feed me
was just rancid rice and bones
All I drank was muddy water
As lonely as a saxophone

Why don’t you take me
To where I wanna go
To Natchez, Mississippi
Sicily and Rome

You just took me to a flyblown town
In the back of nowhere
The smell was acrid and toxic
Couldn’t breathe the air

The only club was called conspiracy
You didn’t like me much
What they wanted was tyranny
And all that crazy, crazy fucked up stuff

Why don’t you drive me
Take me where you wanna go
Yeah, why don’t you take me
Down that rough and twisted road

Yeah why don’t you teach me
Teach me all those foreign tongues
Yeah why don’t you teach me
Cause I’m deaf and blind and dumb

Yeah drive me
Yeah drive me
where I wanna go
Drive me

Take me where I wanna
Take me where I wanna
Take me where I wanna go
