Testo Far Away Eyes - The Rolling Stones
Testo della canzone Far Away Eyes (The Rolling Stones), tratta dall'album The Singles 1971-2006 (Box Set)
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 20 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
Sitting in the corner
A little bleary, worse for wear and tear
Was the girl with far away eyes
So if you're down on your luck
And you can't harmonize
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
Well
Well, the preacher went right on saying
That all I had to do was send ten dollars
To the church of the sacred bleeding heart of Jesus
Located somewhere in Los Angeles, California
And the 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 for the 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
So if you're down on your luck
I know you all sympathize
Get a girl with far away eyes
