The Rolling Stones – Melody

(Jagger&Richards)

Melody, it was a second name

Melody, it was a second name

Came home one morning about quarter to three

I’m banging on my door cause I just lost my key

Open up, baby, you got someone else inside

I’m going to come get you dead or alive

I took her out dancing but she drank away my cash

She said, “I’m going to fix my face don’t you worry I’ll be back”

I’m looking for her high and low like a mustard for a ham

She was crashed out in the bathroom

In the arms of my best friend

Then one day she left me

She took everything that moved

My car, she took my trailer home

She took my Sunday boots

My nose is on her trail

I’m going to catch her by surprise

Then I’m going to have the pleasure

To roast that child alive
