The Rolling Stones Gimme Shelter Lyrics

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!

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! Yeah!
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!
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Umm. The flood is threatening
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, yeah, yeah, yeah.
