Keep Up Blues by The Rolling Stones Lyrics
(Intro)
[Verse 1]
I got a new suit, kind of Italian style
It's got low cut collar, kind of carved behind
Stitched in waist and it's real tight in the butt, yeah that's right
You better watch out baby, see me strut my stuff
Yeah, come on!
[Harmonica solo]
[Verse 2]
Yeah, my shirt's made in England, and my shoes in Rome
You know I'm coming and smell my cologne
You ga' keep up baby, keep up with the times, yeah you better
You better watch out, you'll be left lagging far behind
Aw yeah, keep up baby, keep up with it
[Guitar solo]
[Verse 3]
I got a new apartment, the view's sublime
Sit on my sofa and let's pass some time
But the roof is leaking, oh the rent is high, yes it is
I got to keep up baby, keep up with the times
Aww, you gotta keep up now, keep up
[Harmonica solo]
[Verse 4]
Ahh, I got a new actress, she ain't been in much
Except for filling a cocktail bar, but
She says she got a break, she got a starring part in a movie
If I don't watch out, I'll be pushing a shopping cart, that'll be me
[Verse 5]
You gotta keep up baby, keep up baby
Keep up baby, keep up with the times, yeah that's right!
Keep up with the times
And if you don't watch out, you'll be left back and far behind
Alright
Well I said it
[Verse 1]
I got a new suit, kind of Italian style
It's got low cut collar, kind of carved behind
Stitched in waist and it's real tight in the butt, yeah that's right
You better watch out baby, see me strut my stuff
Yeah, come on!
[Harmonica solo]
[Verse 2]
Yeah, my shirt's made in England, and my shoes in Rome
You know I'm coming and smell my cologne
You ga' keep up baby, keep up with the times, yeah you better
You better watch out, you'll be left lagging far behind
Aw yeah, keep up baby, keep up with it
[Guitar solo]
[Verse 3]
I got a new apartment, the view's sublime
Sit on my sofa and let's pass some time
But the roof is leaking, oh the rent is high, yes it is
I got to keep up baby, keep up with the times
Aww, you gotta keep up now, keep up
[Harmonica solo]

[Verse 5]
You gotta keep up baby, keep up baby
Keep up baby, keep up with the times, yeah that's right!
Keep up with the times
And if you don't watch out, you'll be left back and far behind
Alright
Well I said it
