Stones’ All the Way Down (Excerpt)

She went all the way 
All the way down 
She went all the way, all the way 
She showed me love a hundred ways 
How she pimped and how she paid 
All the daughters, all the sons 
All were welcome, all would come 
We went all the way 
All the way down 
We went all the way, all the way 
I was King, Mr. Cool 
Just a snobby little fool 
(Like kids are now.) 
I dreamed of reaching greater heights 
I raved about it every night 
Talk is cheap



"See those fault lines laid out like landmines
It's hard to relax
A promise broken, the ground breaks open
Love falls through the cracks

And I have a few of my own
I got a few of my own fault lines
Running under my life
Running under my life

I'm alone here, I play the odds, dear
I go where I please
Down below, the man I know
Might not be me

And I got a few of my own
I got a few of my own fault lines
Running under my life
Running under my life

On the high-wire, above the wildfire
An old acrobat
On faulty cable, still he's able
Not to fall flat

And I got a few of my own
I got a few of my own fault lines
Running under my life
Running under my life"

Tom Petty  "Fault Lines"


"Starf*cker, starf*cker star" - from the Rolling Stones' song "Star Star" off of Goat's Head Soup! In fact, those are the only words in the whole song! I have the LP! Mick, what were you thinking?
"You gotta make like you wanna kneel and pray-ay-ay-ay"
 "And then a little-bit-of-soul will come your way"

Music Explosion: Little bit of Soul - 1967 
Lyrics from Star Star that might have got buried in the mix,

Yeah, Ali McGraw got mad with you
For givin' head to Steve McQueen
Yeah, you and me we made a pretty pair
Fallin' through the silver screen
Honey, I'm open to anythin'
I don't know where to draw the line
Yeah, I'm makin' bets that you gonna get
John Wayne before he dies
