The Rolling Stones - Some Girls 1978 - When the Whip Comes Down
текст песни

Yeah, momma and poppa told me
I was crazy to stay
I was gay in New York
Which is a fag in L.A.
So I saved my money
And I took a plane
Wherever I go they treat me the same

CHORUS:
When the whip comes down (4x)
I'm going down fifty-third street
And they're spitting in my face
I'm learning the ropes
Yeah I'm learning a trade
The east river truckers
Is churning with trash
I've got so much money
That I'm spending so fast

When the whip comes down
When the whip comes down
When the whip comes down
When the whip comes down

When the shit hits the fan

I'll be sitting on the can
When the whip comes down

Yeah, some called me garbage
While I was sleeping on the street
I never roll
And I never cheat
I'm filling a need
I'm plugging a hole
My mama's so glad
I ain't on the dole

CHORUS 3:
When the whip comes down
When the whip comes down
When the shit hits the fan
I'm sitting on the can
When the whip comes down
When the whip comes down
