Oh, a storm is threat'ning
My very life today If I don't get some shelter Oh yeah, I'm gonna fade away War, children, it's just a shot away It's just a shot away War, children, it's just a shot away It's just a shot away Ooh, see the fire is sweepin' Our very street today Burns like a red coal carpet Mad bull lost its way War, children, it's just a shot away It's just a shot away War, children, it's just a shot away It's just a shot away Rape, murder! It's just a shot away It's just a shot away Rape, murder! It's just a shot away It's just a shot away Rape, murder! It's just a shot away It's just a shot away The floods is threat'ning My very life today Gimme, gimme shelter Or I'm gonna fade away War, children, it's just a shot away It's just a shot away It's just a shot away It's just a shot away It's just a shot away I tell you love, sister, it's just a kiss away It's just a kiss away It's just a kiss away It's just a kiss away It's just a kiss away Kiss away, kiss away  submitted by Roberta |

 68 posts | I don't think any 3 songs better represent this period of music than Gimme Shelter, All Along The Watchtower (Jimi Hendrix) and Sunshine Of Your Love (Cream). This is also the best period for rock music that there ever was or popular music in general for that matter. |

30 posts | This is my favourite Stones song. There are a few, but this is the ultimate!
The bass line is amazing, and even though the lyrics are a bit dark, it's one of the best Stones songs the have ever done! So, pffffft!  >  |
