The Rolling Stones - Start Me Up [Bridges to Bremen]

〈Intro〉
If you start me up
If you start me up, I'll never stop
If you can start me up
If you can start me up, I'll never stop

〈Verse 1〉
I've been running hot
You got me ticking, going to blow my top
If you start me up
If you start me up, I'll never stop
Never stop, never stop, never stop

〈Chorus〉
You make a grown man cry
You make a grown man cry
You make a grown man cry
Spread out the oil, the gasoline
I walk smooth, ride in a mean, mean machine

〈Verse 2〉
Start it up
If you start me up
Kick on the starter, give it all you got
You got to, you got to
I can't compete with the riders in the other heats
If you rough it up
If you like it you can slide it up
Slide it up, slide it up, slide it up

〈Chorus〉
Don't make a grown man cry
Don't make a grown man cry
Don't make a grown man cry
My eyes dilate, my lips go green
My hands are greasy, she's a mean, mean machine

〈Verse 3〉
Start it up
Start me up
Ah, ah, give it all you've got
You've got to never, never, never stop
Start it up, whoo!
Ah don't trip me up, just start it up

Never, never, never

〈Chorus〉
You make a grown man cry
You make a grown man cry
You make a grown man cry
Ride like the wind at double speed
I'll take you places that you've never, never seen
Hey, hey

〈Bridge〉
If you start it up
Love the day and we will never stop, never stop
Never, never, never stop
Start me up
Never stop, never stop

〈Chorus〉
You, you, you make a grown man cry
You, you make a dead man cum
You, you make a dead man cum

The Rolling Stones - Biography

Formed in London in 1962, The Rolling Stones led the “British Invasion” along with The Beatles and were so successful their influence can be seen in arguably every rock ‘n’ roll band that followed.

Three of the current members have been there since the band’s inception: singer Mick Jagger and guitarist Keith Richards, who write the majority of the band’s catalogue and also produced some albums as The Glimmer Twins; and drummer Charlie Watts. The fourth official member is guitarist Ronnie Wood, who has been there since 1975 (the keyboardist and bassist who play in studio and live are usually not listed). The Stones have released more than 20 studio albums, and even as age caught up on them, continued to be a huge attraction on the live circuit, with big stadium tours continuing through the 1990s, 2000s and into the 2010s.
