Waiting on a Friend No Security by The Rolling Stones Lyrics

Genre: rock | Year: 1998

[Spoken Word Intro: Mick Jagger]
I didn't know when I was going to introduce him, but I'll introduce him now. We're gonna have a really cool saxophone player join us up here called Josh Redman. He's gonna be out in a minute any way

[Intro]
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, oh-ooh-ooh, yeah
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, oh-ooh-ooh, yeah

[Verse 1]
Watching girls go passing by
It ain't the latest thing
I'm just standing in a doorway
I'm just trying to make some sense

[Chorus]
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
Just waiting on a friend
Just waiting on a friend
Just waiting on a friend
[Saxophone Solo 1]

{Bridge}
Don't need a whore
I don't need no food
Don't need a virgin priest
But I need someone I can cry to
I need someone to protect
Ooh yeah

[Chorus]
I'm making love and breaking hearts
It is a game for youth
But I'm not waiting on a lady
I'm just waiting on a friend
I'm just waiting on a friend
Just waiting on a friend
Just waiting on a friend
I'm just waiting on a friend

[Saxophone Solo 2]

[Outro]
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, oh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, oh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, oh-ooh-ooh, yeah
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, oh-ooh-ooh
[Audience Applause]

[Spoken Word Intro: Mick Jagger]
Yes! Josh Redman
