(mick jones, joe strummer) |
|
They say you stand by your man |
|
Tell me something i don't understand |
|
You said you love me and that's a fact |
|
And then you left me, said you felt trapped |
|
Well some things you can't explain away |
|
But the heartache's with me to this day |
|
Chorus: |
|
Did you stand by me? |
|
No not at all |
|
Did you stand by me? |
|
No way |
|
All the times that we were close, |
|
I remember these things the most |
|
I've seen my dreams come tumbling down |
|
I can't be happy without you around |
|
So alone i keep the wolves at bay |
|
And there's only one thing i can say |
|
Chorus: |
|
Did you stand by me? |
|
No not at all |
|
Did you stand by me? |
|
No way |
|
So explain why this must be |
|
Did you lie when you spoke to me? |
|
Chorus: |
|
Hey, did you stand by me? |
|
No not at all |
|
Did you stand by me? |
|
No way |
|
I got a job but it don't pay |
|
I need new clothes, somewhere to stay |
|
Hey without these things i can do |
|
But without your love i can't make it through |
|
But if you don't understand my point of view |
|
Then there's not a damn thing i can do |
|
Chorus: |
|
Did you stand by me? |
|
No not at all |
|
Did you stand by me? |
|
No way |
|
Did you stand by me? |
|
No not at all |
|
Did you stand by me? |
|
No way |
