I was driving home early Sunday morning through Bakersfield
Listening to gospel music on the colored radio station
And the preacher said, You know you always have the
Lord by your side
And I was so pleased to be informed of this that I ran
Twenty red lights in his honor
Thank you Jesus, thank you lord
I had an arrangement to meet a girl, and I was kind of late
And I thought by the time I got there she'd be off
She'd be off with the nearest truck driver she could find
Much to my surprise, there she was sittin in the corner
A little bleary, worse for wear and tear
Was a girl with far away eyes
So if you're down on your luck
And you can't harmonize
Find a girl with far away
And if you're downright disgusted
And life ain't worth a dime
Get a girl with far away eyes
Well the preacher kept right on saying that all I had to do wassend
Ten dollars to the church of the sacred bleeding heart of Jesus
Located somewhere in Los Angeles, California
And next week they'd say my prayer on the radio
And all my dreams would come true
So I did, the next week, I got a prayer with a girl
Well, you know what kind of eyes she got
So if you're down on your luck
I know you all sympathize
Find a girl with far away eyes
And if you're downright disgusted
And life ain't worth a dime
Get a girl with far away eyes
The Rolling Stones are a legendary British rock band formed in London in 1962. Composed of Mick Jagger (vocals), Keith Richards (guitar), Ronnie Wood (guitar) and Charlie Watts (drums, deceased in 2021), the Rolling Stones have dominated the music scene for over half a century. The classic lineup also included Bill Wyman (bass, retired in 1993) and Brian Jones (multi-instrumentalist, died in 1969). After Jones' death, Mick Taylor took his place until 1974. Considered one of the most influential bands in rock history, the Rolling Stones are known for their blues-infused hard rock sound and lascivious rhythms. Their songs often tackle themes of sex, drugs, social unrest and politics, becoming an icon of rebellion and freedom. Some of their most representative tracks include '(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction', 'Jumpin' Jack Flash', 'Sympathy for the Devil' and 'Paint It Black'. Essential albums include 'Let It Bleed', 'Sticky Fingers' and 'Exile on Main St.', which have helped define the evolution of rock over the years.
