Like They Used To
We got free seats
To the rolling stones
The first record that I ever owned
How that sound is never gonna die
You had my hand
Exile on Main
Nothing ever would be quite the same
How you could fake that look in your eyes
We hung around
After the show
Joked about how they had gotten old
But how it really didn't disappoint
I said I'd drive
Us back home
Then your next words left me so alone
I never thought this would be the night
'Cause they don't play like they used to
And they don't move like they did anymore
So why should I think it's different
When you said you would
Be there 'til the encore
Guess you could say
I took it well
Smashed the glass I thought that I could sell
One more thing that I wish I could get back
We said goodbye
To three long years
As Mick sang, I'm Out of Tears
So glad that I at least had caught The Stones
'Cause they don't play like they used to
And they don't move like they did anymore
So why should I think it's different
When you said you would
Be there 'til the encore
Well no one acts like they used to
And no one cares like they did anymore
Me thinking that you were different
Was a mistake I made
Your beast of burden for sure
To the rolling stones
The first record that I ever owned
How that sound is never gonna die
You had my hand
Exile on Main
Nothing ever would be quite the same
How you could fake that look in your eyes
We hung around
After the show
Joked about how they had gotten old
But how it really didn't disappoint
I said I'd drive
Us back home
Then your next words left me so alone
I never thought this would be the night
'Cause they don't play like they used to
And they don't move like they did anymore
So why should I think it's different
When you said you would
Be there 'til the encore
Guess you could say
I took it well
Smashed the glass I thought that I could sell
One more thing that I wish I could get back
We said goodbye
To three long years
As Mick sang, I'm Out of Tears
So glad that I at least had caught The Stones
'Cause they don't play like they used to
And they don't move like they did anymore
So why should I think it's different
When you said you would
Be there 'til the encore
Well no one acts like they used to
And no one cares like they did anymore
Me thinking that you were different
Was a mistake I made
Your beast of burden for sure
