"Honky Tonk Women"
Misheard Lyrics: I met a gentle ball-room queen in Memphis
I tried to take her upstairs for a ride. She had to leave me right across her shoulder. 'Cause I just can't seem to drink you off my my mind. AND A lady De Francé in New York City I had to put up some kind of a fight. The lady then she covered me with roses, She blew my nose and then she blew my mind. Original Lyrics: I met a gin-soaked barroom queen in Memphis.
She tried to take me upstairs for a ride. She had to heave me right across her shoulder 'Cause I just can't seem to drink you off my mind. AND I laid a divorcée in New York City, I had to put up some kind of a fight. The lady then she covered me with roses, She blew my nose and then she blew my mind. |

The Repetitive Lyrics: Yeah! You're a starf**ker, starf**ker, starf**ker, starf**ker star...
Why They're Repetitive: I counted the number of times that word is used. One count gave me around 40 times. Another time I got up to 80. BTW "that word" is the official song title, the record label execs didn't want that word printed on the album so it was "renamed" as "Star Star". It was the same way when Joan Jett covered it on her 1983 "Album" album.

"Jumpin' Jack Flash"
The Nonsensical Lyrics: Jumpin' Jack Flash, it's a gas, gas, gas!
Why They're Nonsensical: Is Mick telling us that something called "Jumpin' jack flash" is some sort of gas? Or is he telling someone named Jack Flash about a gas? (Since in the latter scenario we don't know what "it" is.)

| "Mixed Emotions"
The Nonsensical Lyrics: Button your lip, baby. Button your coat.
Let's go out dancing, go for the throat. Why They're Nonsensical: Huh? Go for the throat? Is Mick Jagger trying to tell us he's a vampire or something? Whatever. And it doesn't even relate to the lyrics before it in the song. I really don't know what it has to do with the previous line.

The Inappropriate Lyrics: With no loving in our souls and no money in our coats...

The Song Lyrics: Hold on to your heart
Hold on to your hat Don't give me no sh*t Don't give me no crap. Woo! Hold on to your head Don't give me no rap I've had up to here With your yakety-yak Song They Mention: It refers to the 50s gem "Yakety-Yak" by the Coasters. This particular song is from the Steel Wheels album. There's so much diversity here, this song is kind of punk. Steel Wheels is one of my favorite Stones CDs - it's so good and it reminds me of the good times of 1989-1991. A true classic.

"Miss You"
The Lyrics: Well, I've been haunted in my sleep You've been starring in my dreams Lord I miss you I've been waiting in the hall Been waiting on your call When the phone rings It's just some friends of mine that say, Hey, what's the matter man? We're gonna come around at twelve With some Puerto Rican girls that are just dyin' to meet ya We're gonna bring a case of wine Hey, let's go mess and fool around You know, like we used to
I've been walking in Central Park Singing in the dark People think I'm crazy I've been stumbling on my feet Shuffling through the street Asking people, what's the matter with ya boy? Why: The Rolling Stones' "Miss You" is from the group's 1978 lp, "Some Girls". Despite meeting with some resistance due to the fact that many thought the ultimate rock band, the Rolling Stones were selling out by releasing a Disco tune (which "Miss You" is, the Rolling Stones didn't hide that fact), the song still managed to find itself all the way to #1 in the early fall of 1978. And surprisingly, it is still one of the most played Rolling Stones' songs on Classic Rock and Classic Hit stations (many dj's say it's their favorite Stones' tune). "Miss You" casts lead singer, Mick Jagger, as a guy living in New York City lost without the love of his life, and trying to lose himself in the party scene but failing miserably at it. There is a shoutout in the second verse to the real U.S. territory of Puerto Rico (with the "Puerto Rican girls" lyric), and in the third verse there is a shoutout to a the real place of Central Park (a famous park in upper Manhattan).

| "Brown Sugar"
The Lyrics: Gold coast slave ship bound for cotton fields, Sold in a market down in New Orleans. Scarred old slaver know he's doin' alright. Hear him whip the women just around midnight.
Drums beating, cold English blood runs hot. Lady of the house wondrin' where it's gonna stop. House boy knows he's doin' alright. You should a heard him just around midnight. Why: The Rolling Stones' "Brown Sugar' is from the group's 1971 lp, "Sticky Fingers". "Brown Sugar" went to #1 in the early summer of 1971, despite some resistence from women's rights group (about the lyrics where the old slaver whips the women) and from African-American rights group (about the whole song about slavery). But the Rolling Stones explained that it was just a song about those times of the early 18th Century and was more an indictment on the English participating in the slave trade, in America, despite the British government outlawing slavery in Britain at that time. In the first verse lead singer Mick Jagger gives a shoutout to the city of New Orleans, and in the second verse a shoutout to England (via the word, English).

"Sympathy For The Devil"
The Lyrics: I shouted out 'Who killed the Kennedys?' When after all it was you and me!
