Keith Richards creates a distinctive guitar sound here using a technique he also used on "Jumpin' Jack Flash": his acoustic guitar is overdubbed several times. Says Richards: "Street Fighting Man is all acoustics. There's no electric guitar parts in it. Even the high-end lead part was through a cassette player with no limiter. Just distortion. Just two acoustics, played right into the mike, and hit very hard. There's a sitar in the back that gives the effect of the high notes on the guitar."

This song deals with civil unrest in Europe and America in 1968. There were student riots in London and Paris, and Vietnam protests in America. It was the first Stones song to make a strong political statement. Mick Jagger got the idea for the song in March, 1968 when he went to an anti-war rally at the US embassy in London and saw mounted police wading into a crowd of 25,000.
