The Rolling Stones – Doom And Gloom

All Music

I had a dream last night I was piloting a plane
And all the passengers were drunk and insane
I crash landed in a Louisiana swamp
Shot up a horde of zombies
But I come out on top

What’s it all about?
Guess it just reflects my mood
Sitting in the dirt
Feeling kind of hurt

When all I hear is doom and gloom
With all this darkness in my room
Through the light, your face I see
Baby take a chance
Baby won’t you dance with me

We lost all that treasure in an overseas war
Just goes to show you don’t get what you paid for
Bowing to the rich and you worry ’bout the poor
Put my feet up on the couch and lock all the doors

What’s that funky noise
It’s the tightening of their screws
Sitting in the dirt
Feeling kind of hurt

All I hear is doom and gloom
But when those drums go boom boom boom
Through the night, your face I see
Baby take a chance
Baby won’t you dance with me

Yeah!
Baby won’t you dance with me
Ah yeah

Fracking deep for oil but there’s nothing in the sump
There’s kids all picking at the garbage dump
I’m running out of water so I better prime the pump
I’m trying to stay sober but I end up drunk

We’ll be eating dirt
Living on the side of the road
There’s some food for thought
Gonna make your head explode
Feeling kind of hurt yeah

But all I hear is doom and gloom
With all this darkness in my room
Through the night, your face I see
Baby, take a chance
Won’t you dance with me

Yeah!
Come on
Baby won’t you dance with me
I’m feeling kind of hurt
Baby won’t you dance with me

Oh yeah!
Sitting in the dirt
Baby won’t you dance with me
