Gimme Shelter
Ooh, a storm is threatening
My very life today
If I don't get some shelter
Ooh, 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, yeah
Ooh, see the fire is sweeping
Our very street today
Burns like a red coal carpet
Mad bull lost the way
War, children, yeah
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, hey
Rape, murder
It's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
Rape, murder, yeah
It's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
Rape, murder (woo)
It's just a shot away
It's just a shot away, yeah, yeah, yeah
Mmm, the floods is threatening
My very life today
Gimme, gimme the 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
My very life today
If I don't get some shelter
Ooh, 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, yeah
Ooh, see the fire is sweeping
Our very street today
Burns like a red coal carpet
Mad bull lost the way
War, children, yeah
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, hey
Rape, murder
It's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
Rape, murder, yeah
It's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
Rape, murder (woo)
It's just a shot away
It's just a shot away, yeah, yeah, yeah
Mmm, the floods is threatening
My very life today
Gimme, gimme the 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
