The Rolling Stones - Doom And Gloom Lyrics

I had a dream last night I was piloting a plane
And all the passengers were drunk and insane
I crash landed in a Louisiana swamp
Shot up a horde of zombies but I come out on top

What's it all about
Guess it just reflects my mood
Sitting in the dirt
Feeling kind of hurt
But all I hear is doom and gloom
And all is darkness in my room
And through the light your face I see
And baby take a chance - baby won't you dance with me

Lost all the treasure in an overseas war
It just goes to show you don't get what you paid for
Bowing to the rich and you're worrying about the poor
Put the feet up on the couch and lock all the doors

What's the funky noise
It's a tightening of the screws
Feeling kind of hurt
Sitting in the dirt
All I hear is doom and gloom
But when those drums go "boom boom boom"
And through the night your face I see
And baby take a chance - baby won't you dance with me

Yeah! Baby won't you dance with me
Ah yeah!

Fracking deep for oil but there's nothing in the sump
There's kids all picking at the garbage dump
I'm running out of water so I better prime the pump
I'm trying to stay sober but I end up drunk

We'll be eating dirt
Living on the side of the road
There's some food for thought
Kind of makes your head explode
Feeling kind of hurt
Yeah...
But all I hear is doom and gloom
And all is darkness in my room
Through the night your face I see
Baby, come on
Baby, won't you dance with me, yeah!

Yeah! Baby, won't you dance with me
I'm feeling kinda of hurt
Baby, won't you dance with me

Ah yeah, come on - dance with me

I'm sitting in the dirt
Baby won't you dance with me
