Torn and Frayed Letra - The Rolling Stones

Hey, let him follow you down

Way underground wind and he's bound

Bound to follow you down

Just a dead beat right off the street

Bound to follow you down

Well the ballrooms and smelly bordellos

And dressing rooms filled with parasites

On stage the band has got problems

They're a bag of nerves on first nights

He ain't tied down to no home town

Yeah, and he thought he was reckless

You think he's bad, he thinks you're mad

Yeah, and the guitar player gets restless

But his coat is torn and frayed

It's seen much better days

Just as long as the guitar plays

Let it steal your heart away

Steal your heart away

But his coat is torn and frayed

It's seen much better days

Just as long as the guitar plays

Let it steal your heart away

Steal your heart away

Joe's got a cough, sounds kind of rough

Yeah, and the codeine to fix it

Doctor prescribes drug store supplies

Who's gonna help him to kick it?

And his coat is torn and frayed

It's seen much better days

Just as long as the guitar plays

Let it steal your heart away

Steal your heart away

Well his coat is torn and frayed

It's seen much better days

Just as long as the guitar plays

Just as long as the guitar plays

Just as long as the guitar plays

Just as long as the guitar plays
