Sympathy For The Devil (Live At Earls Court, London, UK / 1976) Lyrics

Let me please introduce myself
I'm a man of wealth and taste
I've been around for a long, long year
Stole many a man's soul and faith
I was around when Jesus cried
I was around when the dog prayed
He damn sure did pray
Wash his hands clean as rain

Pleased to meet you
Hope you guessed my name
What it is
I won't be fuzzy, y'all
It's just a name to all my men

I rolled out St. Peter's door
I said I was a shy fourteen
I killed a song and ministered
To Caesar in the rain
I wore a tank and a chain was ranked
When the fifth street played and the bodies sang

Pleased to meet you
Hope you guessed my name
What it is
I won't be fuzzy, y'all
It's just a name to all my men

This is Elvis, you're looking at
How the sinners and saints
And everything got no use for
I'm a heater, sorry street
If you need me, have some courtesy
Have some sympathy, I say
You lie low out there, what it is
Or I let you go to waste

Pleased to meet you
Hope you guessed my name
What it is
I won't be fuzzy, y'all
It's just a name to all my men

What my name
I said it to you
I wore a tank
I said what you want
Good night everybody
Good night
I want to wish y'all a good night
I want to see y'all shake it some
Shake it some
