Memo From Turner Lyrics - The Rolling Stones


1 Didn't I see you down in San Antone

2 On a hot and dusty night?

3 You were eating eggs in Sammy's

4 When the black man there drew his knife


5 Aw, you drowned that Jew in Rampton

6 As he washed his sleeveless shirt.

7 You know that Spanish-speaking gentleman,

8 The one that we all call Kurt


9 Come now, gentlemen

10 I know there's some mistake

11 How forgetful I'm becoming

12 Now you fixed your business straight


13 I remember you in Hemlock Road

14 In 1956

15 You're a faggy little leather boy

16 With a smaller piece of stick


17 Well, you're a lashin' smashin' hunk of man

18 Your sweat shines sweet and strong

19 Your organ's working perfectly

20 But there's a part that's not screwed on


21 Weren't you at the Coke convention

22 Back in 1965

23 You're the misbred, grey executive

24 I've seen heavily advertised


25 You're that great gray man

26 Whose daughter licks policemen's buttons clean

27 You're the man who squats

28 Behind the man who works the soft machine


29 Come now, gentlemen

30 Your love is all I crave

31 You'll still be in the circus

32 When I'm laughing, laughin' in my grave


33 When the old men do the fighting

34 And the young men all look on

35 And the young girls eat their mother's meat

36 From tubes of plasticon


37 Be wary, please, my gentle friends

38 Of all the skins you breed

39 They have a tasty habit

40 They eat the hands that bleed


41 So, remember who you say you are

42 And keep your noses clean

43 Boys will be boys and play with toys

44 So be strong with your beast


45 Oh Rosie dear, don'tcha think it's queer

46 So stop me if you please

47 "The baby's dead," my lady said

48 You gentlemen, why you all work for me
