Rollin’ Stone

Well, I wish I was a catfish
Swimmin’ in a, oh, deep blue sea
I’d have all you good lookin’ women
Fishin’, fishin’ after me.

I went to my baby’s house
And I sit down, oh, on her steps
She said: «Come on in now,
You know, my husband just now left.»

Well, my mother told my father
Just before, mmhm, I was born:
«I got a boy-child’s comin’
Gonna be a rollin’ stone.»

Well, I feel, yes I feel
Feel like a low down time ain’t long I’m gonna catch the first thing smokin’
Back down the road I’m goin’.

McKinley Morganfield alias Muddy Waters, 1950.

Bevor er einer berühmten Band den Namen gab, war der Rolling Stone ein Lied. Und ein Fisch.

50 Jahre Rolling Stones.
