The Rolling Stones - Gimme Shelter lyrics

Your rating:

Oh, a storm is threat`ning 
My very life today 
If I don`t get some shelter 
Oh yeah, I`m gonna fade away 

War, children, it`s just a shot away 
It`s just a shot away 
War, children, it`s just a shot away 
It`s just a shot away 

Ooh, see the fire is sweepin` 
Our very street today 
Burns like a red coal carpet 
Mad bull lost its way 

War, children, it`s just a shot away 
It`s just a shot away 
War, children, it`s just a shot away 
It`s just a shot away 

Rape, murder! 
It`s just a shot away 
It`s just a shot away 

Rape, murder! 
It`s just a shot away 
It`s just a shot away 

Rape, murder! 
It`s just a shot away 
It`s just a shot away 

The floods is threat`ning 
My very life today 
Gimme, gimme shelter 
Or I`m gonna fade away 

War, children, it`s just a shot away 
It`s just a shot away 
It`s just a shot away 
It`s just a shot away 
It`s just a shot away 
I tell you love, sister, it`s just a kiss away 
It`s just a kiss away 
It`s just a kiss away 
It`s just a kiss away 
It`s just a kiss away 
Kiss away, kiss away
