The Rolling Stones — The Spider And The Fly

[Chorus 1] Sitting thinking sinking drinking Wondering what I'd do when I'm through tonight Smoking moping, maybe just hoping Some little girl will pass on by Don't want to be alone but I love my girl at home I remember what she said She said, My, my, my don't tell lies, keep fidelity in your head My my my, don't tell lies, When you're done you should go to bed Don't say hi, like a spider to a fly Jump right ahead and you're dead [Chorus 2] Sit up, fed up, low down go round Down to the bar at the place I'm at Sitting drinking, superficially thinking About the rinsed-out blonde on my left Then I said, hi, like a spider to a fly Remembering what my little girl said [Chorus 3] She was common, flirty, she looked about thirty I would have run away but I was on my own She told me later she's a machine operator She said she liked the way I held the microphone Then I said hi like a spider to a fly Jump right ahead in my web [Chorus 1] [Chorus 2] [Chorus 3]
