The Rolling Stones - Waiting On A Friend Lyrics

Artist: The Rolling Stones

Album: Tattoo You

  • Songwriters: Mick Jagger, Keith Richards

Watching girls go passing by
It ain't that latest thing
I'm just standing in a doorway
I'm just trying to make some sense

Out of these girls go passing by
The tales they tell of men
I'm not waiting on a lady
I'm just waiting on a friend

A smile relieves a heart that grieves
Remember what I said
I'm not waiting on a lady
I'm just waiting on a friend

Just waiting on a friend
I'm just waiting on a friend
I'm just waiting on a friend

Don't need a whore
I don't need no food
Don't need a virgin priest
I need someone I can cry to
I need someone to protect

I'm making love and breaking hearts
It is a game for youth
I'm not waiting on a lady, oh yeah
I'm just waiting on a friend

I'm just waiting on a friend
I'm just waiting on a friend
I'm just waiting on a friend

I'm just waiting on a friend
I'm just waiting on a friend
I'm just waiting on a friend
