Lyrics:M.Jagger/K.Richards Music:M.Jagger/K.Richards | |
The fields of Eden | |
Are full of trash | |
And if we beg and we borrow and steal | |
We'll never get it back | |
People are hungry | |
They crowd around | |
And the city gets bigger as the country comes begging to town | |
We're stuck between a rock | |
And a hard place | |
Between a rock and a hard place | |
This talk of freedom | |
And human rights | |
Means bullying and private wars and chucking all the dust into our eyes | |
And peasant people | |
Poorer than dirt | |
Who are caught in the crossfire with nothing to lose but their shirts | |
Stuck between a rock | |
And a hard place | |
Between a rock and a hard place | |
You'd better stop put on a kind face | |
Between a rock and a hard place | |
We're in the same boat | |
On the same sea | |
And we're sailing south | |
On the same breeze | |
Guiding dream churches | |
With silver spires | |
And our rogue children | |
Are playing loaded dice | |
Give me truth now | |
Don't want no sham | |
I'd be hung drawn and quartered for a sheep just as well as a lamb | |
Stuck between a rock | |
And a hard place | |
Between a rock and a hard place | |
You'd better stop | |
Put on a kind face | |
Can't you see what you've done to me |

The fields of Eden | |
Are full of trash | |
And if we beg and we borrow and steal | |
We' ll never get it back | |
People are hungry | |
They crowd around | |
And the city gets bigger as the country comes begging to town | |
We' re stuck between a rock | |
And a hard place | |
Between a rock and a hard place | |
This talk of freedom | |
And human rights | |
Means bullying and private wars and chucking all the dust into our eyes | |
And peasant people | |
Poorer than dirt | |
Who are caught in the crossfire with nothing to lose but their shirts | |
Stuck between a rock | |
And a hard place | |
Between a rock and a hard place | |
You' d better stop put on a kind face | |
Between a rock and a hard place | |
We' re in the same boat | |
On the same sea | |
And we' re sailing south | |
On the same breeze | |
Guiding dream churches | |
With silver spires | |
And our rogue children | |
Are playing loaded dice | |
Give me truth now | |
Don' t want no sham | |
I' d be hung drawn and quartered for a sheep just as well as a lamb | |
Stuck between a rock | |
And a hard place | |
Between a rock and a hard place | |
You' d better stop | |
Put on a kind face | |
Can' t you see what you' ve done to me |
